Hello knowledgable forum; Around 1800 how 'serious' was the smuggling of French goods into Britain in general? And was the 'clergy' involved as depicted, quite alot in this? I should imagine France was pretty much self sufficient or was it? Did Napoleon 'borrow' money from English bankers to invade England! David. |

Hi David: we had a long discussion years ago about smuggling. I've unearthed it from the 'bowels of the ship': viewtopic.php?f=1&t=476&p=2703&hilit=smuggling#p2703 I'm sure someone else can answer the banking question. |

Thanks Anna lot there to delve into. Yes the banking question is somewhat more 'tricky'. David |
