This new edition of the most authoritative, comprehensive history of the French        Revolution of 1789 draws on a generation of extensive research and scholarly debate        to reappraise the most famous of all revolutions. Updates for this second edition        include a generous chronology of events, plus an extended bibliographical essay        providing an examination of the historiography of the Revolution.Opening with the        accession of Louis XVI in 1774, the book traces the history of France through        revolution, terror, and counter-revolution, to the triumph of Napoleon in 1802, and        analyses the impact of events both in France itself and the rest of Europe.William        Doyle shows how a movement which began with optimism and general enthusiasm soon        became a tragedy, not only for the ruling orders, but for the millions of ordinary        people all over Europe whose lives were disrupted by religious upheaval, and civil        and international war. It was they who paid the price for the destruction of the old        political order and the struggle to establish a new one, based on the ideals of        liberty and revolution, in the face of widespread indifference andhostility.
