Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Whether this volume was originally published on demand or self-published through Archway, a Simon & Schuster imprint, I don't know, but I'm holding a fine copy of this study of Joseph Fouche, who is called the "Inventor of the Modern Police State" and the sinister-looking Fouche in the anonymous portrait in the front of the book looks like the man for the job.

In Medusa's Head, Rand Mirante recounts the chameleonic and astonishing career of Napoleon's security chief, who created the modern police state and wielded immense power that threatened the other main organs of government. Fouché was one of the most important, fascinating, and controversial figures of the French Revolution, the First Empire, and the Bourbon Restoration, and this biography captures and unravels the highlights of Fouché's life, including his infamous roles as:A priest-in-training who became a radical Jacobin and de-ChristianizerA regicide who cast a dramatic swing vote for Louis XVI's immediate execution The grim and remorseless 'Butcher of Lyon' Mastermind of the conspiracy that sent Robespierre to the guillotine The head of Napoleon's police - privy to everyone's secrets, shaping the media, deploying 10,000 informants in Paris alone, and securing funding from the Empire's casinos and brothelsCunning enabler of Napoleon's 1799 coup, and subsequent repeated betrayer of the EmperorActing president after Waterloo and traitor to FranceLouis XVIII's Minister of Police, in spite of his responsibility for the death of the King's brotherA wealthy but disgraced exile who met an unusual end in Trieste on the AdriaticMedusa's Head provides fresh insights and perspectives on this enormously influential and fearsome individual.…
