George Rudé meticulously chronicles the composition, motivations, and actions of the Parisian crowd between 1787 and 1795, drawing on extensive archival research including police records and court documents to identify exactly who took to the streets. The work argues compellingly that the revolutionary crowd was not a mindless mob, but a socially identifiable and politically conscious force composed largely of urban wage-earners and artisans. Written with scholarly authority and vivid historical detail, this seminal text fundamentally reshaped how historians understand the role of ordinary people in the making of the French Revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956316811483,"sku":"2026100008512-SECONDHAND","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/a6bf0b1a-f6f9-48a7-b278-25b4098418e5.png?v=1783499570","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100008512-secondhand-the-crowd-in-the-french-revolution","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
