Description

In its fifth year (1793-1794), the French Revolution faced a multifaceted crisis that threatened to overwhelm the Republic. In response, the government instituted a revolutionary dictatorship and a "reign of terror," with a Committee of Public safety at its head. R. R. Palmer's fascinating narrative follows the Committee's deputies individually and collectively, recounting and addressing their tumultuous struggles in Paris and their repressive missions in the provinces.
