The plain reasoner : wherein the present state of affairs are set in a new, but very obvious light; the separate and connected interests of Great-Britain and Hanover consider'd : and the important question determined; whether England be best defended by an army, or a navy; at a distance or at home : in discussing these points, many vulgar arguments are censured and exploded, and a rational political system substituted in their stead.
