Victories and Peace Overture in the 1708 Campaign
London reports an annual review of the 1708 Allied campaigns in the Netherlands and beyond. It notes French fear of Allied advances, the impact of famine and weather, and moves toward peace negotiations. Key figures include Torcy Rouillé Marlborough and Eugene, with preliminaries debated and renewed talks at The Hague. The narrative covers Portuguese and Spanish theaters, Bay’s forces near Olivenza, and Gibraltar’s strategic role as winter approaches.
