In this thoughtful tract, the author seeks to address the growing tensions between the American colonies and the mother country. Drawing upon recent pamphlets that vividly depict the claims and actions of North Americans, he aims to ease the mounting resentment in Britain. By highlighting insights from the Colonists and well-informed gentlemen, he explores the concessions that could have been achieved through diplomacy and examines the grievances that led to armed conflict. - Summary by John ErskineCopyright Politics, Philosophy, Religion 世界 政治・政府 政治学
