To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Prince Henry declares that in an interview with Catherine in January 1771 he proposed the Partition of Poland, At that moment the situation in the east of Europe was pecu- liarly threatening. The Russians had completed their con- quests of Moldavia and Wallachia ; Austria had occupied Zips and Sandecz, including in her grasp some 500 Polish villages ; and while the King of Prussia had sent troops'into Polish Prussia, the Polish Confederates had no money and small hopes of success. The Confedera...tion relied entirely on cavalry, which numbered about 17, 000, divided into five or six squad- rons, under the command of as many independent chiefs. In 1 771 Dumouriez was defeated at Landskron, and though Vio- mesnil, Dussaillans, and Choisy seized the castle of Cracow the following year, they were unable to hold it against Suvor6v, and Poland lay at the mercy of the three allies.
On the 24th of December 1770, Choiseul had fallen, and France had become for the moment a cipher in European politics.
