The wily Benjamin Franklin wrote in 1784, after observing the Montgolfer brothers balloon, ''Where is the Prince who can afford to cover his country with troops for its defense as that ten thousand men descending from the clouds might not in many places do an infinite deal of mischief before a force could be brought together to repel them?"

The Interior Department, War Department And Indian Policy, 1865–1887, Henry George Waltmann

Department of History: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
