'A lively and well-written survey of the French Revolution that
would have a lot to offer students starting their study of this
major topic' - Nigel Aston, University of Leicester, UK 'While the
volume is bound to engage (and perhaps enrage some) specialists,
its greatest utility lies in its clean, brisk narrative that serves
to explain the tumultuous events of the Great Revolution. A solid
acquisition for undergraduate collections. Summing Up: Highly
Recommended'. - G. P. Cox, Gordon State College in CHOICE.
"Shusterman concentrates on narrative and provides an animated and
detailed introduction for those starting to study the Revolution.
His unique focus on the interaction of religion and gender helps to
demonstrate what exactly was revolutionary about the upheavals of
1789 and beyond." -Louise Seaward, University of Sheffield
