Synopsis
"A Collection Of State Papers: Relative To The War Against France Now Carrying On By Great-Britain And The Several Other European Powers" by John Debrett. This volume collects official papers, dispatches, and memoranda from 1796–1797 describing Britain's attempt to negotiate a general peace with the French Republic during the Revolutionary Wars, along with related state papers on Spain, Hungary, and colonial affairs. It mixes diplomatic correspondence, decrees, and contemporary propaganda, situating negotiations in Paris and London, with references to Vienna, Bern, and other theatres. The collection traces a negotiation arc through numbered notes between Grenville, Malmesbury, and Delacroix, highlighting Britain’s push for a general treaty with compensation and a balance of power, and the Directory’s insistence on including allies and respecting its constitutional framework. Parallel materials on Jamaica, St. Domingo, and colonial governance illustrate the broader imperial dimension. As a primary-source compilation, the volume documents diplomacy under war, the fragility of negotiation, and the interaction of European and colonial theatres in late 18th-century policy.
