The Jacobin Republic Under Fire: The Federalist Revolt in the French Revolution (Paperback)
Over the years some very good work has been published on the Federalist Revolt, but no one has attempted an overarching study of the event in over a century. Hanson presents a general narrative of the events as well as a pointed analysis that ultimately seeks to identify what, exactly, divided Girondins from Montagnards.
Paul R. Hanson is Professor of History and Dean of the College of Liberal Arts at Butler University. He is the author of Provincial Politics in the French Revolution (1989) and the forthcoming Historical Dictionary of the French Revolution.
