This is the most up-to-date and comprehensive study of French history available, ranging from the early middle ages to the present. This third edition has been substantially revised and includes a new chapter on contemporary France.

This 2004 book is about politicisation and political choice in the aftermath of the February Revolution of 1848. The focus is on responses to the counter-revolutionary policies pursued by the imperial regime of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte following his coup d'etat and on the emergence of democracy in France.

This is a most thoroughly researched book on Napoleon III's Second Empire. It makes a vital contribution to the quarter-century of French history following the 1848 revolution, which saw major developments in the 'modernization' of the French state and in its relationships with its citizens.
