The French Revolution turned Europe upside down. If monarchs could be deposed in one country, what made other monarchs feel safe on their thrones?
While some of the effects of the Revolution can be argued to still be rippling today - I felt the author really missed the point on this book. He repeats himself - A LOT, and that can take away from the academic viewpoint of the book. For someone who is just starting out in history, then this might be a great read, but for those who are in academia, and wanting to get something with a little more meat, I would not recommend this book. The sources used were good, I just felt let down with the book.
