Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book consists of two letters addressed to W. H. Gregory, Esq., M.P., and a third letter to the general public. The former is written in response to a motion proposed by Gregory to the House of Commons to address the Queen. The aim of this motion was to persuade Her Majesty to exert her influence with foreign powers to induce them to spare private property at sea during times of war. The author strongly disagrees with this motion, contending that it is based on a false premise and that it would be impossible to enforce. The author argues that the Declaration of Paris, which was signed in 1856 and which abolished privateering, has not been accepted by all nations and is therefore not binding on any. He also argues that even if it were accepted, it would be impossible to enforce because there is no way to distinguish between private and public property at sea. The third letter is addressed to the general public and expands on the arguments made in the first two letters. The author argues that the Declaration of Paris is a dangerous and short-sighted policy that will ultimately lead to war. He urges the public to reject the motion proposed by Gregory and to support a policy of maintaining the right to seize private property at sea. This book is a valuable contribution to the debate on the Declaration of Paris. The author makes a strong case against the Declaration, and his arguments are well-reasoned and persuasive. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of international law or in the current debate on the legality of war. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
