Histoire de l'Émigration pendant la Révolution Française. Tome 2 / Du 18 fructidor au 18 brumaire

The work traces émigrés' political and military activity during the late revolutionary period, outlining their divisions, diplomatic negotiations, and persistent efforts to restore the monarchy. It examines the shifting domestic landscape after the Terror, the hopes of moderate constitutionalists, and the émigrés' intrigues across Britain, Germany, Russia, Sweden and Switzerland, including attempts to place armed contingents under foreign protection and rivalries among royal claimants. It also describes efforts to foment or support uprisings in provinces like the Vendée and Lyon, attempts to sway generals and Directory members, and the reliance on fractured alliances and foreign intervention as means to a restoration.
