Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the British Empire in the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 2: The Campaigns of Wellington and the Policy of Castlereagh (1806-1825) The fate of the modern world was determined during the first quarter of the nineteenth century. Indeed the issues of that period were the most important which have ever occurred in the history of mankind. Kingdoms were broken up rebuilt, monarchs were raised from the people, crowned and dethroned, and new systems of government were invented, tried, and discarded. The Pope was hurled by violence from his chair, and restored by force of arms. Treaties and laws were made and broken every few months. Each of the Powers of Europe was friend and foe to each in turn, except England, which was steadily hostile to Napo leon throughout. Armies and eets were called into being, and destroyed with reckless prodigality, and commerce was hampered by ruthless blockades. Everywhere force reigned triumphant. In the centre of it all stood two of the most fascinating figures in history, Wellington and Napoleon, and around them were grouped the monarchs, statesmen, and generals of Europe. The British Ministers had a difficult task to perform and made many mistakes, for they appointed generals who could not lead, despatched useless expeditions, and were culpably tardy in lending aid to their allies.
