Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the final months of Interior Minister Garatâs dramatic tenure as Minister of the Interior during the tumultuous summer of 1793, on the heels of the execution of King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. The author draws on a diverse range of first-hand accounts from observers, revolutionaries, and politicians to craft a vivid account of the bloody June Insurrection, the increasingly desperate measures employed by the National Convention and the infamous Committee of Public Safety to neutralize their opponents, and the beginnings of the Reign of Terror. Through these eyewitness chronicles, the author examines the complex political machinations, social tensions, and fears that gripped Paris during a pivotal moment in the history of the French Revolution, offering insights into the origins of modern concepts of total war, the nation state, and mass politics.
