Arthur Young
Travels in France During the Years 1787, 1788, 1789
Join Arthur Young, an English agriculturist, as he embarks on an extraordinary journey to document the agricultural landscape of France, only to find himself swept into the tumult of the French Revolution. His vivid account of life in both the bustling capital and serene countryside during the pivotal years of 1787, 1788, and 1789 is filled with amusing travel mishaps and serves as a striking eyewitness narrative of a society on the edge of upheaval. From the opulent court of Versailles to quaint village backroads, immerse yourself in this remarkable chronicle of unfolding events, conspiracy theories surrounding the queen, and the emotional rollercoaster of jubilation and mass hysteria.
