Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a scathing critique of the British government's handling of military affairs during the French and Indian War. Shebbeare argues that the government failed to adequately support its troops, leading to a string of defeats and ultimately the loss of Minorca to the French. He also accuses the government of corruption and incompetence. A must-read for anyone interested in British military history and politics of the mid-18th century.
