Gabriel-Henri Gaillard was born at Ostel, Picardy, in 1726.
He was educated for the bar, but after finishing his studies adopted a literary career, ultimately devoting his chief attention to history.
He was already a member of the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-lettres (1760), when, after the publication of the three first volumes of his Histoire de la rivalile de la France et d'Angleterre, he was elected to the French Academy (1771); and when Napoleon created the Institute he was admitted into its third class (Academie franqaise) in 1803.
For forty years he was the intimate friend of Malesherbes, whose life (1805) he wrote about.

He was elected to the French Academy (1771) and Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-lettres (1760).
Gaillard is painstaking and impartial in his statement of facts, and his style is correct and elegant, but the unity of his narrative is somewhat destroyed by digressions, and by his method of treating war, politics, civil administration, and ecclesiastical affairs under separate heads.
