The opening scenes are calculated to im press the mind by their magnitude and grandeur; the progress of the narrative is marked by a rapid succession of events, rising in importance as they advance in the order'of time; and in conclusion we behold the world emancipated, by an agency more than human, from a tremendous military despotism, that had nearly drawn into its vortex all the states of continental Europe; while Great Britain, after braving the revolutionary storms of a quarter of a century, has come out of the contest, not merely with her liberties and invaluable institutions unimpaired, but with her national character exalted, and her army and navy irradiated by wreaths of imperishable renown.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward Baines wrote a comprehensive, multi-volume history of the French Revolution. The early years of the Revolution were fueled by Enlightenment ideals, seeking the social overthrow of the caste system that gave the royalty and aristocracy decisive advantages over the lower classes. But history remembers the French Revolution in a starkly different way, as the same leaders who sought a more democratic system while out of power devolved into establishing an incredibly repressive tyranny of their own once they acquired it. The height of Republican France's tyranny came during a 10 month period forever known as the Reign of Terror, the most notorious and arguably most memorable part of the French Revolution. One of the first victims of the Reign of Terror was its most famous: former French Queen Marie Antoinette. But Antoinette was followed by thousands more, including everyone from aristocrats to clergy to prostitutes and even instrumental revolutionaries like Danton, Desmoulins, and, most notably, Robespierre. It was Robespierre whose position on the Committee of Public Safety made him the Reign of Terror's instrumental figure until he himself became a victim of it in July 1794. Robespierre's date with the guillotine is often considered the official end of the Reign of Terror, but by then it is estimated that at least 16,000 people were guillotined in that time and possibly 25,000 more were summarily executed across the country. Although Robespierre is almost singlehandedly associated with the Reign of Terror and is typically blamed for it, many factors influenced the actions and beliefs of Paris and the remainder of France during late 1793 and 1794. Robespierre and the Committee of Public Safety believed passionately in the Revolution and fought to eliminate any threat to the young French Republic. Robespierre envisioned a Republic of Virtue, with no room for anyone who did not abide by his rules and morality. Counterrevolutionaries certainly did threaten the Revolution; however, most of those killed during the Reign of Terror were not counterrevolutionaries and posed no serious threat to the Revolution or Republic.

The period of the last five and-twenty-years, commencing with the dawn of the Revolution in France, has given birth to events which fix the attention by their novelty, gratify curiosity by their variety, and overpower the imagination by their magnitude - events which powerfully interest the heart, by the astonishing influence they have exerted, not merely -ou the fate of monarchs and of empires, but over the domestic circle of the most retired individual? And it is no exaggeration to assert, that there Is scarcely a single inhabitant of Europe that has not been affected by these tremendous occurrences, either In his own person, in his family, or in his near connections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the French Revolution, Vol. 2: Its Causes and Consequences Another short interval of hope and joy ensued, when the Constituent Assembly ceded its place to the Legislative Assembly, (the name assumed by the new chamber.) There was a change and new swearing, and this always seemed to appease the multitude for a moment. The constitution being the work of the middle classes, these, in the feeling of their strength, thought it inviolable, and forgot that there were still two parties in the state - those who had lost every thing, and those who had yet every thing to gain - who were not going to sit down in quiet content and veneration for laws which were but the production of the ambition of their fellows, and which, if one class could make, another could break with equal right. When the law of the land is despoiled of its sanctity, and becomes but the expression of the will of the people - when that will changes (and what is more fickle?) the law must change with it, and indeed ceases to be law.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Wars of the French Revolution, From the Breaking Out of the War in 1792, to the Restoration of a General Peace in 1815, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprehending the Civil History of Great Britain and France, During That Period If time were measured by events instead of years, centuries might be said to have passed during the age in which we live. To com. Press the records of these transcendently important occurrences into a moderate compass; to narrate them in a connected and lucid order; and to furnish a memorial, not merely instructive and interesting to his contemporaries, but useful to the future historian; have been the primary objects of the author's labours. A work undertaken with such views, will, of course, be rather a record of facts than a medium of opinions. The time indeed has not yet arrived for exploring the secrets of cabinets, or for developing the hidden springs by which the principal actors in this mighty contest have been actuated. This is the work of posterity, and can never be successfully accomplished till time shall have shed his mel lowing influence over the passions and feelings which still continue to agitate the present age. In presenting to the public the history of the Wars arising out of the French Revolution, the most scrupulous regard has been had to fidelity of representation. No event has been suppressed, nor has any fact been distorted, to gratify the partiality, or to 'advance the interests of a party. Truth has been the polar star by which the author has shaped his course; and though he makes no pretensions to freedom from political predilection, . He assumes perhaps a higher. Merit, when he declares, thatin the pro scontion of this undertaking, he is not conscious of having in any instance suffered his mind to be biased, or his narrative tinctured, byany thing, approaching either to national antipathies, or to party asperity.
