'An imaginative and richly sourced challenge to narrow, Paris-centred accounts of May '68. A fine contribution to the historiography' Professor Robert Gildea, University of Oxford, Professor of Modern History

'An imaginative and richly sourced challenge to narrow, Paris-centred accounts of May '68. A fine contribution to the historiography' Professor Robert Gildea, University of Oxford, Professor of Modern History 'Chris Reynolds updates perspectives on May 1968 by way of an overdue concentration on the events in the provinces, along with a reassertion of the generally underestimated importance of reformist elements. May as spectacle is cogently demystified here, in a study that provides a significant and thoroughly-documented corrective to more glamorised views and representations.' Professor Keith Reader, University of Glasgow, Professor of Modern French Studies '... this is a significant book that needs to be read by everyone who, like it or not, works in the 'May 1968 industry'. Daniel A. Gordon, Edge Hill University, for Modern and Contemporary France Journal
