A groundbreaking work of history (and, incidentally, the primary resource for Charles Dickens’s novel A Tale of Two Cities) Carlyle’s French Revolution explains momentous historical change as resulting from the leadership of heroic individuals. The immediacy of Carlyle’s prose—in which past events are often recounted in the present tense—makes for riveting reading.

About the author
Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881) was a Scottish essayist, historian, satirist, and political thinker. He became influential for Victorians because his writing reflected Calvinist values but also a loss of faith, which paralleled the community’s changing scientific and political views.
