An incendiary diatribe against what the author considers to be the pride of the aristocracy and class system and against the otherwise servile nature of the people of Great Britain; pages 22-25 and p. 44-48 specifically mention the crimes committed by the English against the Americans and their meddling in affairs of state in Saint-Domingue; also includes a great deal of praise heaped upon Napolean and his work on behalf of the French people
