‘The Republican Line is an admirable book, which can be endorsed without reservation and read with great pleasure.’
Robert Justin Goldstein, University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Nineteenth-Century French Studies (vol. 45, numbers 1-2, fall-winter 2016-2017)
‘This is a work that is detailed, thorough and thoughtful. It is well illustrated and there are detailed descriptions of the images that could not be reproduced. It will be a useful resource for future historians of France’s mid-nineteenth-century crisis.’
Christopher Guyver, The English Historical Review
