Glory and Terror: Seven Deaths Under the French Revolution

"A brilliant and fascinating book....[With] an awkward and error-laden translation...De Baecque's French is not always easy....But his writing is usually fluid and often elegant....Readers interested in an example of the best history currently being written in France may still want to give GLORY & TERROR a try. De Baecque's historical method is original and provocative."Antoine de Baecque is the author of 'Glory and Terror: Seven Deaths Under the French Revolution', published 2001 under ISBN 9780415926164 and ISBN 0415926165.
