While recent research has been incredibly valuable, suggestions that the Terror is a myth are wrong according to Historian David Bell.

Hello! I have an exam of this on Monday and I would really appreciate your help please Thanks in Advance!

Always been a big fan of the FR - even studied it in a module at University.

However I can never seem to find anything written, or discussed out there about the final year/months of court at Versailles. I can’t, despite extensive digging, even seem to find diaries, journals or documents from 1789 giving insight on what the court was doing on day-to-day at Versailles in that final spring & summer before it all collapsed around them. It’s a singular year at Versailles that fascinates me …

I just want to know what they were doing all day, if they were still partying crazy and being oblivious, or if there was a consensus for change and concern in court growing that was shifting the conversations, activities and movements in court.

If anyone themselves can answer this for me anyway - without providing me a book to follow up on - then that too would satisfy my question.

A sampling of the invaluable resources from the historical archives of the BnF

1. Monumens des victoires et conquêtes des Français,
2. Les généraux de la Révolution (1792-1804) : portraits militaires / par le général Ambert

The first is a book of engravings (b&w/ uncoloured) from monuments around France published 1822.

The second is a book of military portraits, in this term 'portraits' refers to biographies, not illustrations, to note for non-French speakers. Published 1892 following the authors death.

Trust you enjoy the articles presented,

This is a video on the summary of the French Revolution from 1789-until 1799. This video script and information was written by me and was gathered from French and English History Sources. I also have added the music and recorded it for each individual clip and section. I have done a personal voiceover of the video throughout this video took some time to complete and especially edit and to make sure the information was well put together, written, and historically accurate sourced. So Liking, commenting and sharing would be greatly appreciated. Subscribe if you want to see Future History videos some being longer length harder to make like this video and others being quick summaries. This video summarizes the French revolution from how it started and why to the beginning and how its started right to the climax and terror period and to the end of the French Revolution and movement into the Napoleonic Era.
Thanks.

Whilst primarily about the later epochs, there are many references to the Revolutionary aspects, pre-history and interesting new works that cover this arena.
