The French are docile if well treated in society
A lengthy critique extols the French as a gentle, kindly people responsive to civil, patient treatment and not to coercion. The piece contrasts this view with stern, pedantic attitudes of Guizot and Léon Faucher, arguing that misreading national character leads to poor governance and misapportioned policy.
