Excerpt: ... et rien ne sortera de france pour le Service de nos amis (pardon Si J'en parle avec cette liberte) quil ne Soit eprouve et prouve de la meilleure qualite. J'ai l'honneur d'etre Sans nul compliment, avec l'estime et i'attachement que vous m'av?'s inspires--Monsieur Votre tres humble et tres obeissant Serviteur, Caron De Beaumarcha1s. Addressed: Monsieur Deane, Hotel du grand Villars, Rue St. Guillaume a Paris. Thomas Mss. Translat1on. Paris, 26 July, 1776. Expressions of gratitude on your part and in behalf of your country will be in order, Sir, when the service has been rendered. To be regarded as a true friend of the brave defenders of your liberties will be to me the most touching of all. As to advances in money--equity alone can estimate them at their true value after your testimony that you will yourself render to your constituents of the activity, ardor, and resources that we have employed to overcome obstacles. Do not try to find cannon or other arms. You are too recent an arrival in this country to succeed in obtaining any of these things, and only in the arsenals of the King is there hope of finding them of the excellent quality that you require. Possibly out of the surplus, not needed for the service, I can buy the whole or a part of what you want, but I cannot do so without extreme caution and by absolutely suppressing their destination, the use for which they are intended, and even the name of the buyer. Several people are already working for me to secretly obtain the necessary orders, and no trouble, labor or money spent among the officials will deter me from thoroughly acquainting myself with the quality and the number of pieces of artillery and other arms that we may purchase. Have no anxiety. I do not however think it possible--supposing that ...

Download or read book Republicanism and Bourgeois Radicalism written by Isaac Kramnick and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this book Isaac Kramnick adds a strong voice to the lively debate about the nature of political ideology in eighteenth-century England and America. Whereas the now-dominant "republican thesis" sees liberal ideology as virtually irrelevant in an age of civic commitment to a moral public order, Kramnick makes a strong case for a thriving liberalism in the Anglo-American world at the time of the American and French revolutions. In his view, both ideologies flourished during this period, and it is unwise to see one as the exclusive paradigm in which eighteenth-century political discourse took place. In short, he proposes to the republican school a scholarly truce.
Download or read book Forests and French Sea Power 1660 1789 written by Paul Bamford and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1956-12-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By choosing to concentrate upon discovering what forest resources were available to the French navy during the ancien régime and what use it was able to make of them, Mr. Bamford has not only provided the first monograph on that subject in the English language, but has gone far toward explaining why France was the loser in the long duel with England for the control of commerce and the extension of empire. Two years of research in the Archives Nationales and in the Archives de la Marine in Paris, Toulon, and Rochefort enabled him to draw on contemporary sources of information of which little, if any, use has been made before, and a further year of research in the libraries of New York City, particularly in the rich Proudfit Naval Collection, also yielded new material. It is Mr. Bamford's achievement to have handled this vast store of primary sources with such skill and judgement that the reader, by turning over letters from disgruntled forest proprietors, reports from harassed maîtres on the trickery and recalcitrance of the peasants, instructions from the top echelon of the navy to inspectors in the forests, and a variety bills, receipts, and memoranda, is given at first hand an appreciation of the difficulties faced by the navy in trying to obtain timber and masts of the choice quality required for building ships-of-the-line. The navy had to compete with the merchant marine and with industrial and private users of fuel for supplies that were continually being depleted by mismanagement and by the conversion of forests to arable land. Measures, superficially admirable, for conserving the forests are found on closer examination to be at once over-precise and not properly enforced. Transport, even in a country so abundantly supplied with navigable rivers as France, was expensive and difficult.

Download or read book Philip Freneau written by Jacob Axelrad and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Freneau was a poet, editor, and mariner. A graduate of Princeton, he was the roommate of James Madison and a classmate of Hugh Henry Brackenridge and Aaron Burr. When the colonies rebelled against England, he supported his newly born nation as a privateer, spending some time in a British prison as a result. He also served, more effectively, as “the poet of the Revolution.” Later he became the journalistic voice of the democrats. Ardently devoted to liberty, he believed himself to be a defender of the common man, for whom he fought selflessly and often vitriolicly throughout his life. In newspapers such as The Freeman’s Journal, The New York Daily Advertiser, The National Gazette, The Jersey Chronicle, and The Time-Piece, he published articles, letters, and poems, instructing the citizens of the new Republic about their rights, and attacking those who, he believed, were infringing on those rights. In the midst of the controversy in which he was so often involved, he also found time to write a small body of poetry whose sensitivity and beauty mark him as the poetic equal of his European contemporaries, and, in fact, as a precursor of the new Romantic movement In Philip Freneau: Champion of Democracy Jacob Axelrad provides a detailed biography of this pensman of the Revolution and early Republic. He gives a sympathetic, imaginative, perceptive, yet objective interpretation of Freneau and his place in history, and at the same time he presents a delightfully readable and clear picture of the period during which the poet lived. These pages not only re-create the battles between Whig and Tory, federalist and democrat, but they also are alive with the activities and philosophies of the men who made American history. James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, John Adams, James Monroe go about the business of creating and shaping a new country, and as they do, they move into and out of the life of the poet of Monmouth, influencing him in a variety of ways. Above all, Axelrad brings to life for the reader the man Freneau: simple, direct, often uncritical in his devotion to the cause he believed in; courageous in sustaining his stand against strong opposition; disillusioned and pessimistic about human nature, yet boldly optimistic about the future of humanity and of his country. And always behind the furor the reader is aware of the man struggling to provide a living for himself and his family, and never quite succeeding.
