'Tantalizing prose' - TLS Jean Jaures was the celebrated French
Socialist Party leader, assassinated in 1914 for trying to use
diplomacy and industrial action to prevent the outbreak of war.
Published just a few years before his death, his magisterial A
Socialist History of the French Revolution has endured for over a
century as one of the most influential accounts of the French
Revolution ever to be published. Written in the midst of his
activities as leader of the Socialist Party and editor of its
newspaper, L'Humanite, Jaures intended the book to serve as both a
guide and an inspiration to political activity; even now it can
serve to do just that. Jaures's verve, originality and willingness
to criticise all players in this epic drama make this a truly
moving addition to the shelf of great books on the French
Revolution. Now available for the first time in paperback, Mitchell
Abidor's abridged translation of Jaures's original six volumes
makes this exceptional work truly accessible to an Anglophone
audience.
