DANCING BEFORE STORMS THE STORY OF FIVE REVOLUTIONS
Robert Trevennel Harris The American and French Revolutions, the European Springtime of the Peoples, and the Chinese and Russian Revolutions broadly shaped the contours of the world as we know it. This is the story of five revolutions that changed the world, and the unexplored connections between them. • The narratives of founding revolutions are taught in idealised and often nationalistic terms, and therefore the interactions between great revolutions are often neglected or understated. This book will examine and reframe these five worldchanging revolutions and the people involved. • Examines five fascinating active participants in the political struggles of the times.
