| Summary | Publisher Provided Annotation Vindiciae Gallicae was James Mackintosh's first major publication, a contribution to the debate begun by Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France (published by Liberty Fund in 1999). The success of Mackintosh's defense of the French Revolution propelled him into the heart of London Whig circles. The turn of events in France following the September 1792 Massacres caused Mackintosh, along with other moderate Whigs, to revise his opinions and to move closer to Burke's position. The Liberty Fund edition also includes Mackintosh's Letter to William Pitt, an attack on the prime minister, Pitt the Younger, for going back on his own record as a parliamentary reformer; and On the State of France in 1815, his reflections on the nature and causes of the French Revolution. |
