Descent plans and political reflections in 1702 pamphlet
In a 1702 pamphlet, the author discusses English naval power against France and Portugal, praising Duke of Ormond but condemning peaceists. He argues a coordinated inland and seaborne expedition could fracture France and Portugal, while disparaging Venice for peace inclinations. A scathing critique of those who libel King William’s memory follows, calling for defense of the late king’s reputation and warning against factional betrayal.
