Step into the revolution that changed the world

It took all the daring of an English author to embark on writing a guide that transports the walker back in time to the Paris of the French Revolution. Her book illuminates this difficult and complex period, one that opened the door to a shining age of liberty. - Fr d ric Lacaille, Curator, Mus e National des Chateaux de Versailles et Trianon

You don t need to know anything about the French Revolution to enjoy Path of the Patriots, because this historical time-trip tells you everything! You ll see squatters in the Louvre, revolutionary committees in royal bedrooms, savage massacres and beheadings where Parisians now sit eating their sandwiches, and a revolutionary prison right in the middle of Boulevard Saint-Germain. Path of the Patriots is a goldmine of tales and anecdotes about this turbulent period in Paris s history, and it tells you where to eat and drink while reading them. This book is so full of fascinating stories, you ll enjoy it just as much sitting at home with a glass of wine as you will when you re wandering around the beautiful French capital. You ll never look at Paris in the same way again!

Path of the Patriots comes in two volumes, and has a total of ten walks. The first four walks are in Volume One, which also gives you an introduction to the Revolution through a brief history of what happened, biographies of the people who made it happen, and a description of what the city of Paris looked like during the revolutionary era. In Volume Two there are six more walks that will complete this unique experience of Paris during one of its most dramatic periods of history. Whichever of these two volumes you read, get ready to step into the Revolution that changed the world!
