About this audiobook

The French Revolution (1911), by Hilaire Belloc, is a comparatively short commentary on the great revolutionary experiment between the parliamentary quarrels of 1789 to the execution of Robespierre in 1794. Though the author does not attempt to present a full chronology of events, dwelling mainly on underlying ideas, the individual personalities of the main historical actor and the military aspect, he nonetheless convey a series of intriguing propositions that justify a read of this old treatise.
