Excerpt from Histoire de la Révolution dans les Ports de Guerre, Vol. 2: Brest Rochefort
Avec plus de vertus chrétiennes que ses prédécesseurs, avec une instruction plus étendue surtout, Louis XVI n'a malheureusement pas le goût des affaires. Le journal du malheureux Prince le montre tourmenté d'un invincible besoin d'agitation physique, passant des journées et même des semaines à courre le cerf, préoccupé, certes, des que relles qui troublent la France, mais laissant aux ministres l'initiative des ordres et la responsabilité des décisions.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the little-known story of how Britain's secret and direct interference in France weakened its long-standing rival, making way for political revolution. The author analyzes how Britain's objectives and strategies shifted over the 18th century, moving from fighting France on the battlefield to sabotaging its economy and fomenting political unrest from afar. This interference began decades before the French Revolution, with Britain using methods similar to those they would employ during the Cold Warâ"funding opposition groups, spreading propaganda, and exploiting social divisions. This book reveals the extent of Britain's influence on the course of French history and the significant role it played in shaping the outcome of the Revolution.
