Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of a decisive victory of the British Royal Navy over the French in 1798, as told in a sermon delivered by Bishop Joseph-Octave Plessis to the people of Quebec. Bishop Plessis uses the victory as an opportunity to speak to the nature of the French Revolution, the beneficence of the British Crown, and the importance of religious freedom. While the sermon was delivered over 200 years ago, its insights on the nature of revolution, conquest, and the role of religion in society remain vital and essential reading. Bishop Plessis' sermon is a reminder that even in the midst of war and strife, there is always hope for peace and reconciliation. It is a message that is as relevant today as it was in 1798.
