More about the book

Focusing on the experiences of expelled Girondin deputies Buzot, Pétion, Barbaroux, and Louvet, the memoirs reveal their struggles as fugitives from June 1793 to June 1794, highlighting the political turmoil of the time. This work uniquely shifts the narrative from the earlier Jacobin/Girondin conflicts in the National Assembly to the personal fates of these men during the Terror, ultimately chronicling a poignant story of survival and loss, with Louvet as the last remaining survivor.
