From the back cover: The year 1848 saw a wave of revolution break over the European continent. It began in Paris, on 24 February, with an invasion of the Chamber of Deputies. The poet, Alphonse de Lamartine, described the mob of people who entered the Chamber: 'desperadoes) who were come to make the last assault on the last refuge of royalty.' From France, revolution spread rapidly; Germany, Austria, Italy and Hungary all saw popular leaders replace unpopular kings and rulers. People celebrated what they thought was a great victory. But the old powers of Europe were not so easily beaten; they marshalled their armies and attacked. Despite heroic resistance, the revolutionaries were no match for soldiers armed with the newest weapons, artillery and horses. Within two years, the revolutions had been defeated and many of the old rulers were back in power. 1848: Year of Revolution traces the course of these dramatic events, introducing the leaders and some of the ordinary working people who took part. From the first protests in Paris, through the declaration of independent republics in Italy, to the June Days massacre (where suspected revolutionaries were hung if they smelt of gunpowder) and the end of the conflicts, this book charts the course of one of the greatest upheavals in Europe's history.
