The Russells of Birmingham in the French Revolution and in America, 1791-1814 is a historical book written by S. H. Jeyes and published in 1911. The book focuses on the Russell family, a prominent family from Birmingham, England, and their involvement in the French Revolution and their subsequent migration to America. The book begins by providing a brief history of the Russell family and their rise to prominence in Birmingham. It then delves into the political and social climate of France during the French Revolution and how it affected the Russells. The family was sympathetic to the French Revolution and supported the ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity. The book then follows the family's journey to America, where they settled in Philadelphia and became involved in the political and social life of the city. The Russells were active in the abolitionist movement and supported the rights of African Americans. They also became involved in the political scene and supported the Democratic-Republican Party. Throughout the book, Jeyes provides a detailed account of the Russell family's experiences and how they navigated the turbulent political and social landscape of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He also provides insight into the broader historical context of the French Revolution and its impact on Europe and America. Overall, The Russells of Birmingham in the French Revolution and in America, 1791-1814 is a fascinating historical account of a prominent family and their experiences during a pivotal period in world history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
