Reviews
'Revolutionary Thought after the Paris Commune is an excellent contribution to the scholarship on revolutionary ideas and our understanding of 1871 ... the book is well written, based upon a command of primary and secondary sources, and fairly balances both the successes and failures of the post-1871 revolutionary movement.' Casey Harison, European History Quarterly
'This is an important contribution to intellectual and modern French history collections.' G. P. Cox, Choice
'bold and ambitious ... the book opens up a whole series of topics and invites us to look at them with a fresh eye.' Jonathan Beecher, Journal of Modern History
