Britain Blamed for War Strife and Armament Failings
A critical critique of British policy charges ministers with besieging the nation through continental aims and mismanaging armaments. It argues Gibraltar accommodation, Haddock’s fate, Lestock’s conduct, and Cape Breton restitution harmed naval power. The author accuses ministers of deception, placemen, and excisemen manipulating public opinion to justify ruinous plans.
