Revolution and Stability
A history of the period of constitutional monarchy in France from 1814 to 1848. The text reveals that, although the French experimented with two Monarchies and a Republic during this period, there was substantial stability. It contains extracts from diaries, memoirs, novels and cartoons.Historians in France assume that the restoration of Monarchy after the defeat of Napoleon was doomed. The first compact recent history of the period in English, this book reveals that although the French experimented with two Monarchies and a Republic (1814 - 48), there was substantial stability. The Institutional framework constructed during the Revolutionary years (1789 - 1814) remained intact, and the ruling elites retained basic control. |
