Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a vigorous defense of William Pitt the Younger and Lord Grenville during the tumultuous years of Napoleon's reign. The author contends that the two were unjustly censured for their conduct of foreign affairs, particularly for their negotiation of the disastrous Peace of Amiens in 1802. The author argues that Pitt and Grenville were steadfast in their defense of British honor and interest and that their policies would have been vindicated had they not been undermined by the incompetence and timidity of their successors. This book is a valuable contribution to our understanding of a critical period in British history and offers fresh insights into the characters of two of its most important statesmen.
