Overview

""Dunkirk or Dover"" is a political pamphlet written by John Toland and published in 1713. It addresses the contentious issue of Dunkirk's fate following its capture by British forces. The pamphlet argues that Dunkirk should not be returned to France, emphasizing the strategic importance of the port and the potential threat it poses to British and European security. Toland passionately asserts that yielding Dunkirk would endanger the Queen's honor, the nation's safety, the liberties of Europe, and the peace of the world. Toland's work reflects the intense political debates of the early 18th century, particularly those surrounding the War of the Spanish Succession and the subsequent negotiations. This pamphlet offers valuable insight into the political climate of the time and the public's concerns regarding national security and international relations during the reign of Queen Anne.
