The Coming of the French Revolution remains essential reading for anyone interested in the origins of this great turning point in the formation of the modern world. First published in 1939, on the eve of the Second World War, and suppressed by the Vichy government, this classic work explains what happened in France in 1789, the first year of the French Revolution.

为了写作业而看。一本薄册子，却把大革命的四张面具、四层内涵、四种指向分析得头头是道，结合《旧制度与大革命》一起有助于理清大革命前法国社会状况。不过话说回来，这么浓厚的马克思主义阶级斗争色彩确实突出了农民的作用，和托克维尔似乎是两种话语。
