Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an extract from the journal of an 18th-century spy. It includes reports on secret meetings and the prevailing climate of fear and suspicion in the lead-up to the American Revolutionary War. The author provides a series of first-hand accounts of key figures such as Lafayette and Lord Stormont, giving rare insights into the political maneuvering and diplomatic tensions of the time. The book also includes the text of the Edict of 1777, which was issued by King Louis XVI in a controversial attempt to resolve tensions between the Jesuits and the French Parliament, and the subsequent Declaration that was intended to clarify the Edict's provisions and reassure the Parliament that the Jesuits would not be allowed to revive their organization in France. Through these documents and the spy's commentary, this book offers a unique glimpse into this fascinating historical period.
