Synopsis
The third edition of this popular title provides a gripping narrative of one of modern Europe's most important and dramatic periods. Starting with the long and short term causes of the revolution in 1789, it goes on to look at the rise of the republican movement, the terror, and the Thermidorian reaction. A new section examines the ideas that came out of the revolution—democracy, liberalism, nationalism, republicanism, and popular sovereignty. Throughout the book key dates, terms and issues are highlighted and historical interpretations of key debates are outlined.

Review
'Studied at A-Level, this textbook gives a strongly detailed analysis of the poltical intrigue, incidents and events that stirred the passions of the Revolutionary Mob towards the years of the Directory. Sensibly organised to concentrate attention on periods of transition, this book is useful in providing overall summaries in different formats and tailor-made guides to notemakeing on the chapter in question, along with provision of sample questions and responses. Definately recommended.' Amazon reviewer
