Gildea, Robert2009
Books
The story of how the French repeatedly tried and failed to come up with a new, stable regime for themselves. No regime seemed to be able to establish itself - whether in favour of or against the Revolution's values - without generating fresh, often murderous opposition. These hatreds affected all aspects of French life.
