William Pitt Livres

William Pitt, l'Ancien, fut un homme d'État britannique qui dirigea la nation durant la Guerre de Sept Ans et de nouveau entre 1766 et 1768. Il est principalement reconnu comme un chef de guerre résolument dévoué à la victoire sur la France, un succès qui établit la domination mondiale britannique. Pitt jouit d'une large popularité et était connu pour son opposition à la corruption gouvernementale, sa défense du colonialisme et ses compétences parlementaires aiguisées. Son influence provenait de sa présence imposante, de sa brillante rhétorique et de ses talents de débatteur vifs, nourris par une vaste connaissance littéraire et historique.
