La Revolución francesa es un acontecimiento complejo en el que se unen demandas sociales de todos los estratos con ideas procedentes de la Ilustración y con los diferentes avatares que condujeron a Francia de un monarca despótico a un gobernante imperial. No puede explicarse solamente atendiendo a los hechos, aunque sí debe explicarse ciñéndose a ellos: eso es exactamente lo que hace Breve Historia de la Revolución Francesa.

Joan's story almost feels like a novel instead of a part of history. She was a shining savior on a warhorse, waving her white banner and calling her soldiers forth to victory; but she was also painfully and intensely human, a young girl who wept and bled just the same as the rest of us. In the same breath, it is as easy to relate to Joan as it is to be awed by her incredible character. She may have been beatified as a saint, but Joan of Arc was in many ways a very ordinary human being, a person who felt pain and fear, a person who made mistakes, and who had moments of weakness.

The Norman Conquest of England was that series of events during the latter part of the 11th century by which a Norman Duke was set on the throne of England, and was enabled to hand down the crown of England to his descendants. The Norman Conquest of England means a great deal more than the mere transfer of the crown from one prince or one family to another. It means a great number of changes of all kinds which have made the history and state of England ever since very different from what they would have been if the Norman Conquest had never happened.

Few historical events are as greatly revered and entirely misunderstood as the French Revolution that began in 1789. The memory of this complicated and lengthy political, violent uprising has been generally painted in broad - and oversimplified - strokes. While the French Revolution was certainly centered around two lavish monarchs and an enlightened common class, there was so much more going on behind the scenes.

The work begins by exploring French society before the revolution, claiming that the cause was economic injustice and lack of economic growth. It considers the phases of the revolution, its victims and villains, and the intellectuals involved. Finally, the rise and dictatorship of Napoleon Bonaparte is discussed.

This enthralling book is the first to uncover the story of New York City merchants who engaged in forbidden trade with the enemy before and during the Seven Years’ War. Ignoring British prohibitions designed to end North America’s wartime trade with the French, New York’s merchant elite conducted a thriving business in the French West Indies, insisting that their behavior was protected by long practice and British commercial law.
