Ruth Harris presents a meticulously researched account of the Dreyfus Affair, unpacking the deep currents of antisemitism, nationalism, and Republican idealism that tore France apart for over a decade. With the authority of a seasoned historian, Harris moves beyond the familiar cast of characters to illuminate the broader social and religious forces — including the role of Catholic institutions and the press — that shaped public opinion and prolonged Dreyfus's exile on Devil's Island. The result is a richly detailed portrait of a nation in crisis, arguing that the Affair was not merely a miscarriage of justice but a defining battle for the soul of modern France.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888009785563,"sku":"2026200009548-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/fcc73b27-fa80-44ba-9ec0-5fa3162e9b4a.png?v=1781752500","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009548-secondhand-the-man-on-devils-island-alfred-dreyfus-and-the-affair-that-divided-france","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
