Summary "Histoire de la Révolution française, Tome 05" by Adolphe Thiers is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This volume focuses on critical military movements and political upheavals during the French Revolution, particularly around 1793. It discusses significant events such as the siege of Lyon, the betrayal of Toulon, and various military engagements that shaped the outcome of the revolution, delving into the complex dynamics between revolutionary forces and those resisting them. The opening of this volume presents a detailed narrative of various military campaigns that took place in August and September of 1793. It introduces the ongoing siege of Lyon, the strategic maneuvers against the Vendéens, and the failed attempts to consolidate French power amid foreign threats from allied forces. Thiers highlights the internal strife within revolutionary factions, the treachery involved in Toulon's surrender to the British, and the various military leaders' actions that collectively influenced the course of the revolution. This introduction sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of revolutionary fervor and conflict, establishing essential historical context for readers interested in the intricacies of this pivotal period in French history.
