Sinopsis

A clear, engaging history of Robespierre, the Red Terror, and the forces that shaped the French Revolution’s darkest phase.

This edition draws together a sweeping view of the period, from the rise of the Jacobins to the fall of Robespierre. It combines political drama with social and religious upheaval to explain how decisions, trials, and public opinion helped drive the Terror and its aftermath.


  • Profiles of key figures like Robespierre, Saint-Just, Danton, and Hebert, and how their actions influenced events.

  • Explanations of major institutions and policies, such as the Revolutionary Tribunal and the new calendar, and their impact on daily life.

  • A focused look at the clergy, religion, and the clash between revolutionary ideals and faith.

  • A drama-filled retelling of the Thermidorian reaction and the execution of leading political figures.



Ideal for readers of political history and readers seeking a focused account of the Red Terror and its key players, without getting lost in narrative embellishment.
