Su questo libro

Recensione:

"The story of the French Revolution has been the subject of countless books and articles, but the story of Gracchus Babeuf has rarely been told in the English language, so this reprint of Ian Birchall's 1997 book looking at the French revolutionary is enormously welcome...as Ian Birchall's excellent book shows us, we still have much to learn from the revolutionary life of Gracchus Babeuf."
—Resolute Reader
