James Mackintosh's "Vindiciae Gallicae" (1791) was a brilliant reply to Edmund Burke's "Reflections on the Revolution in France" and Charles-Alexandre de Calonne's "De l'etat de la France". Whig Opposition leader Charles James Fox rated it as the finest defence of the French Revolution. This edition offers an extensive editor's introduction, a fully annotated text of the first edition of "Vindiciae Gallicae" and an appendix which includes the significant substantive revisions that Mackintosh made to "Vindiciae Gallicae" in the late summer of 1791.
