Jean-Louis Delolme's treatise The Constitution of England, published in multiple French and English editions, is said by R. R. Palmer to have had greater impact on pre-Revolutionary continental views of British politics, than did the Montesqieu's Spirit of the Laws (The Age of the Democratic Revolution, Princeton, 1959, 2: 145.)
