Publisher's Summary:
Thomas Carlyle's The French Revolution is a landmark of literary history. Conceived not as a dry recounting of facts, but as a personal, vivid, direct, and dramatic encounter with the turbulent times of revolutionary France, it is in fact an extended dramatic monologue in which we meet not only the striking personalities and events of the time, but the equally striking personality and mind of Thomas Carlyle himself.
In this, the third volume of the series, we live out the course of the French Revolution, from the aftermath of the insurrection of August 1792, which effectively brought the reign of Louis XVI to an end, through the short-lived Constitutional Assembly, into and through the horrors of the Reign of Terror and the emergence of the man on horseback: Napoleon Bonaparte.
