This book investigates the conflict over control over the Western
Mediterranean in the late eighteenth-century. The Western
Mediterranean during the 1790s featured a constant struggle for
control over the region. While most histories point to military
events such as the Italian Campaign as descriptive of this struggle
between the two competing ideological forces of Revolutionary
France and the Counter-Revolutionary First Coalition led by
Britain, this book takes a different approach. Rather than looking
at the struggle between ideologies, this book looks at the struggle
within those ideologies, arguing that the Western Mediterranean
states were not simply the battlefields or the prizes of the
struggle, but were active participants with goals of autonomy or
neutrality. The focus stretches beyond conflict between France and
Britain, into the adaptation of ideology for different uses in
Tuscany, Toulon, Algiers, Spain, and especially Corsica.
