The author examines the lives of nearly 100 monks and officials who held positions of power within the 50 monasteries of the Congregation of St. Vanne and St. Hydulphe. Through thorough archival research, the author portrays the religious and political struggles that divided the Benedictine order and monks, who were impacted by the social and political changes leading up to the uprising.
