Chinese Governments are notoriously difficult in their relations with Europe. G.H.L. LeMay gives a chastening account of two early British attempts to get into diplomatic touch with Pekin.

G.H.L. LeMay sets the unique military features of Napoleonic France against those of the eighteenth century at large.

G.H.L. LeMay documents the dramatic fall and resurrection of Lord John Russell's government.
