FRENCH REVOLUTION, THE - Enquiring History

The French Revolution covers the turbulent history of France 1774-1802 and the bloody events of the revolution and counter-revolution that sent shock waves around Europe. Each enquiry tackles a discrete topic: together, the enquiries build a rounded and balanced picture of the causes, consequences, and historiography of the revolution. As William Doyle puts it, 'there are few periods in history when many benevolent intentions led to such unintended chaos and destruction??.
