SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The French Emigres in Europe and the Struggle against Revolution, 1789-1814 underlines, for the first time, the achievements rather than the failures, of the Emigres. The French Emigres were more than refugees, they were active, and often remarkably successful, agents on the European struggle against the French Revolution.
