@1IIIIIIIIII1 The people killed Marat, and went after Robespierre. Napoleon had Robespierre killed as fall-guy, in attempts to appease the people, as they demanded an end to the terror! Napoleon, however wasn't really a good-guy. He had to be stopped. The British finally brought him down at Waterloo.

@1IIIIIIIIII1 There are over 6000 books written about the French Revolution. I cannot recommend just 1, for you'd need several books, like puzzle pieces to start to see the picture. My Norwegian History Professor is working on a new book with all the facts in one place. She had to go to private home libraries in France, New Orleans, Austria, San Francisco, Sweden, Hudson Valley NY, London, and other places, to look at first print letters, books, and documents, directly from 1776-1803.

So, History Channel brings in Alan Woods, a Trotskyist, to comment on the French Revolution. I suppose a disciple of a mass muderer, one who author Robert Service wrote "revelled in terror," might know something about this sort of episode.

@bushtalefairytale0 Yes,i 100% agree with you.The seniors at versailles would never tell her how bad things were.

i have sympathy for Marie Antoinette, i believe she just wasnt aware of the miss-fortunes of the third estate and was out of touch with the people. she was so young and naive.

These things never take in account how brutal things were hundreds of years ago and how hard it was to survive just a few days. It was a more violent world.

Why is it, when Men charge, they are described as Brave heroes... but when Women Charge, they are described as Banshees?... DOUBLE STANDARD.
