The anonymous reply by an officer of the East India Company to Eyle Irwin's d. 1817 An Enquiry into the Feasibility of the Supposed Expedition of Buonaparte to the East 1798. In his treatise Irwin born in Calcutta to an officer of the Company had downplayed Napoleon's purported ambition to conquer British possessions in Asia following his defeat in the Battle of the Nile.

Diagnosing the issue as an 'aversion to bestow praise on an enemy' the author predicted that an alliance of French and Russian forces could undertake a joint invasion of India a threat which almost came true but for Napoleon's reluctance to expose his already army tired army to defeat.
