Reviews

Liberty, Equality, Fraternity presents a fine narrative of the French Revolution, inflected with lively anecdotes and pointed quotations. The text is valuable for the chronological range it achieves - from the pre-Revolutionary circumstances down through Napoleon and his defeat. It integrates well the results of recent cultural histories, and has the virtue of considering the colonial question, so often left out even by the most forward-looking recent histories of the Revolution. The accompanying CD-ROM is a marvelous achievement. It offers the student a multidimensional view of the Revolution through image, song, and text. Together the book and CD-ROM set a high standard for innovative pedagogy in the age of the Internet and computer literacy. - Joan Landes, Penn State University
