Title: The left and the French Revolution
Description: In this collection of essays, the French Revolution is seen from below: through the eyes of the artisans and craftsmen of Paris, the small businessmen, the wives and daughters of urban dwellers, and members of a variety of professions - the sans-culottes. Nearly all these men and women were active politically in the sections, the popular societies, the Paris Commune, and the electoral assemblies.
