The French Revolution by Peter Davies

The French Revolution by Peter Davies

Blending narrative with analysis, this book explores a time of obscene opulence, mass starvation, and ground-breaking ideals; where the streets of Paris ran red with blood, and the numbers requiring execution precipitated the invention of the guillotine. It considers the legacy of the revolution and how it continues to resonate in France.

Dr Peter Davies was a senior lecturer in History at the University of Huddersfield. His previous books include The Debate about the French Revolution and The Extreme Right in France: From de Maistre to Le Pen. He also launched Britain’s first Cricket Research Centre.
