title: France, 1789-1815: Revolution and Counterrevolution
author: Donald M.G. Sutherland
description: "A very good overview of the period."--Christine Adams, St. Mary's College of Maryland<br /><br />"[A] useful revisionist interpretation of the Revolution."--Anthony Di Iorio, Georgetown University<br /><br />"Marvelous. That rare textbook that is also an exemplary piece of scholarship, working a thesis, argument, and evidence into a topic that in lesser books would settle into little but narrative. Also extremely useful because it acknowledges the Napoleonic era as part of the Revolutionary<br />period."--Robert S. Babcock, Hastings College
