Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a provocative analysis of the political climate of early 1700s England. The author argues that the Duke of Newcastle and his ministry waged an unnecessary and destructive war with France, and that their actions were driven more by personal ambition than by the best interests of the nation. The book provides a detailed account of the war, and it offers a sharp critique of the conduct of the ministry. The author contends that the war was a costly failure that weakened England and damaged its standing in the world. The author concludes that the war was a tragedy for England, and that it is a reminder of the dangers of allowing personal ambition to override the national interest.
