An Essay On Defensive War And A Constitutional Militia: With An Account Of Queen Elizabeth�������s Arrangements For Resisting The Projected Invasion In The Year 1588 is a book written by Michael Dorset and published in 1782. The book is a treatise on the importance of a defensive military strategy and the role of a constitutional militia in protecting a nation from invasion. The author draws on historical examples, particularly Queen Elizabeth's preparations for the Spanish Armada in 1588, to illustrate the importance of a well-organized and well-trained militia. The book argues that a standing army is not sufficient for national defense and that a constitutional militia, composed of citizens who are trained in the use of arms, is necessary to provide a strong defense against foreign threats.The book also explores the constitutional implications of a militia and the role of the government in organizing and regulating it. The author argues that a constitutional militia should be subject to the authority of the government, but also protected from government abuse.Overall, An Essay On Defensive War And A Constitutional Militia is a thought-provoking work that offers insights into the historical and constitutional aspects of national defense. It remains relevant today as debates continue about the role of the military and the importance of a well-trained and organized militia in protecting a nation's sovereignty.Taken From Authentic Records In The British Museum, And Other Collections.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
