Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book recounts Lord Grey's famous 1810 speech where he dissected the history of the war with France, dissected Britain's military and geopolitical position, the state of the national finances, and the shortcomings of the government's approach to all of these. Lord Grey does not simply give a sweeping condemnation of the government's conduct of the war. Instead, he provides a nuanced and detailed critique, acknowledging both the difficulties faced by ministers and the errors they made. His speech is a powerful indictment of the government's record, but it is also a valuable contribution to the historical debate about the causes and conduct of the Napoleonic Wars.
