The book is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the causes and consequences of one of the most significant events in modern European history.""You look like a bishop - you were once a cur����� or monk - you can't be a revolutionary . . . . I have come to Metz with unlimited powers. Public opinion here is not satisfactory. I am going to drill it. I am going to set folks straight here. I mean to shoot, here in Metz, as well as in Nancy, five or six hundred every fortnight.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
