A Decade of Revolution 1789-1799, by Crane Brinton (read 14 Jul 2008) This is a book, published in 1934, in the series The Rise of Modern Europe. It is much heavier on analysis than on narrative history, and so its age does show and I thought detracted from its significance, at least for me. He is rather dismissive of religion which did not endear him to me. But I do not regret reading the book. It is only the 6th volume in the series I have read but that I will read all 18 volumes is very doubtful. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesThe Rise of Modern Europe (1789-1799)
This volume represents a successful attempt to reinterpret the Revolution in the light of modern research. The author admittedly writes 'sociological history, ' but let me hasten to assure any who may have developed a complex against this blend that, whether because of it or in spite of it, the quality of his history is good. His treatment is judicious. His characterization are apt. His writing is clear and vigorous with often an incisive observation that puts the issue in a new light or settles some disputed point more effectively than a page of argument.
