商品簡介
The French Revolution of 1789 was the central event of modern history. This work paints a portrait of the common people of France, in the towns and in the countryside; in Paris and Lyon; in the Vendee, Britanny, Provence. It is a story of conflict, violence and death, but there were winners as well as losers and not all the suffering was in vain.
