Excerpt from A New and Enlarged Military Dictionary, or Alphabetical Explanation of Technical Terms: Containing, Among Other Matter, a Succinct Account of the Different Systems of Fortification, Tactics, Etc By this candid avowal, I may possibly secure the indulgence of the learned, and prepare the deep-read critic for matter of a less important nature, than would be reasonably expected from the title and character of a Dictionary. But I am well aware at the same time, that no candour, no explanation will be able to rescue any work from the disingenuous, per haps the malignant, censure of that class of beings, who only read to gra tify an innate propensity to abuse.
