An Answer To Such Motives As Were Offered By Certain Military Men To Prince Henry: Inciting Him To Affect Arms More Than Peace is a book written by Robert Cotton in 1675. The book is a response to certain military men who were urging Prince Henry to prioritize war over peace. Cotton argues that peace is always preferable to war, and that a wise ruler should always seek to avoid conflict whenever possible. He also argues that war is often costly and destructive, and that the benefits of peace far outweigh any potential gains from military conquest. Throughout the book, Cotton draws on historical examples to support his arguments and to demonstrate the dangers of war. Overall, An Answer To Such Motives As Were Offered By Certain Military Men To Prince Henry is a thoughtful and persuasive argument in favor of peace and diplomacy.Also Contains The French Charity.
