Binding Type: Hardcover - See All Available Formats & Editions Published: January 2004 Annotation: Examining the politics of the French Revolutionary tradition during the nineteenth century Bourbon Restoration and early July Monarchy, Robert Alexander argues that political struggle was not confined to the elite.
