Image description

The outbreak of the Seven Years' War and movement of French troops to the ports of Le Havre and Brest raised English fears of an invasion. In 'The Invasion' Plate II British troops outside an inn named 'Duke of Cumberland' (referring to the last French attempt, backing Young Pretender before defeat at Culloden.) are shown as disciplined and optimistic enough to repel any invasion.
