One of the great landmarks of modern history publishing, Citizens: A Chronicle of the French Revolution is the most authoritative social, cultural, and narrative history of the French Revolution ever produced PRAISE"Dazzling…stimulating…This is no ordinary book…Schama does not merely write brilliantly about people, about events, about the abuse of rhetoric, and about festivals and executions. He also chronicle with a dramatic burst of poetic imagination…. The virtues of this book [lie] in the coruscating brilliance of dazzling display of erudition and intelligence … His chronicle is, after all, a stunningly virtuoso performance." — Lawrence Stone, The New Republic "One of The Best Books Of The Decade." — Time "Monumental…a delight to read…Lively descriptions of major events, colorful cameos of leading characters (and obscure ones too), bring them to life here as no other general work has done….Above all, Mr. Schama tells a story, and he tells it well." — The New York Times Book Review
