Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of John, Duke of Marlborough, With His Original Correspondence, Vol. 5 of 6: Collected From the Family Records at Blenheim, and Other Authentic Sources; Illustrated With Portraits, Maps and Military Plans Although Marlborough was disappointed in his hopes of peace, he yet did not rely so implicitly on the sincerity and apparent distress of France, as to delay the necessary preparations for an early and vigorous campaign. We have seen at the close of the preceding year, his efforts to anticipate the enemy, and his anxiety to collect a superior force. The french, however, were equally active on their side, and drawing troops from all quarters, were in a condition to take the field before the allies.
