Ebook: The French Revolution, 1787-1799 : From the storming of the Bastille to Napoleon

Writing for the present generation, Albert Soboul places the major events of the Revolution within the broader framework of the intellectual, political and socio-economic processes of the time, including the struggle for economic hegemony of the known world between Britain and France, and the intellectual and political influences of the American War of Independence. A new preface by Gwynne Lewis insists upon the relevance and validity of Albert Soboul's work despite the open and covert attacks which have been launched upon it by "revisionist" historians in Britain, France and America.
