It is an era that redefined background. As the 1790s started out, a delicate America teetered on the brink of oblivion, Russia towered as a huge imperial vitality, and France plunged into trend. But in comparison to the way conventional histories inform it, none of the remarkable events occurred in isolation. Now, for the very first time, acclaimed historian Jay Winik masterfully illuminates how their fates merged in one outstanding moment to change the span of civilization. A sweeping, magisterial theatre boasting the richest ensemble of characters ever before to walk after the world stage, including Washington, Jefferson, Louis XVI, Robespierre, and Catherine the fantastic, The Great Upheaval is a gripping, epic portrait of the tumultuous decade that will permanently transform the way we see America's origins and the world.
