I'm supposed to be looking forward to 'Christmas, what I want for' at the moment. I've been looking around for books about The French Revolution, and I was wondering if anyone has opinions on the following:

The Days of the French Revolution by Christopher Hibbert

Fatal Purity: Robespierre and the French Revolution by Ruth Scurr

Saint Just by Norman Hampson

Vive la Revolution by Mark Steel

Thanks!

I've read the Hibbert book, and I thought it was really fun. It's a day to day, political event kind of narrative; like, the French Revolution AS ACTION! Kind of a classical historical narrative but in a very upbeat, entertaing manner.
