Description

The French Revolution: A Quick Immersion by Jay M. Smith is a concise and engaging account of this pivotal event in modern history. By focusing on four critical challenges at the heart of the revolutionary movement, Smith provides essential context for classroom discussion and introduces key issues in a lively and suspenseful narrative. This narrative eschews a sweeping survey in favor of a thematic approach, exploring how tradition, innovation, and contingent events intersected to permanently change France and the world. The result is a brilliant introduction that will be of interest both to students and to the general public. By examining cause and effect, contingency, and patterns of change and continuity, this book lends itself well to coaching students in critical historical thinking skills.
