Synopsis:

Histoire De La Révolution Du 10 Aoust 1792: Des Causes Qui L'ont Produite, Des Événemens Qui L'ont Précédée, Et Des Crimes Qui L'ont Suivie by Jean-Gabriel Peltier is a historical analysis of the events surrounding the storming of the Tuileries on August 10, 1792. The work traces the causes that produced the revolution, the events that preceded it, and the crimes that followed, presenting a royalist perspective on the collapse of the constitutional monarchy and the rise of the Republic. It covers conspiracies among the Feuillants and Jacobins, the massacre of Swiss Guards, the flight of Louis XVI, the formation of the Paris Commune, and the day-to-day turmoil that culminated in the political upheaval in Paris. The author interweaves eyewitness accounts and documentary material to offer a dramatic, polemical chronicle of France’s most turbulent days and the early stages of the Revolution. The volume blends narrative with moral judgment about political factions, foreign powers, and the French people.
