What is A Decade Of Revolution, 1789-1799 about?
"This is the very best short history of the [French] Revolution I have come across in many decades of reading." - Albert Guerard "This volume represents a successful attempt to reinterpret the Revolution in the light of modern research. The author admittedly writes 'sociological history,' but let me hasten to assure any who may have developed a complex against this blend that, whether because of it or in spite of it, the quality of his history is good. His treatment is judicious. His characterization are apt. His writing is clear and vigorous with often an incisive observation that puts the issue in a new light or settles some disputed point more effectively than a page of argument." - The American Historical Review Contents I. The Setting II. The Monarchical Experiment III. Europe and the Revolution: Peace IV. The Republican Experiment V. The Revolutionary Government VI. The Republic of Virtue VII. Europe and the Revolution: War VIII. The Thermidoreans IX. The Directory X. The Arts and Sciences in Revolutionary Europe XI. Conclusion
