In April, 1793, the Revolutionary Tribunal of Paris condemned a handful of prisoners to death for crimes against the French Republic-and judges, jury, and spectators wept as sentence was passed. In July, 1794, the Tribunal sent thirty to fifty people a day to the guillotine. What, in fifteen months, turned the Tribunal into an instrument of mass murder? What collective madness or terror seized its personnel, some of them callous psychopaths, others decent men trapped in nightmarish circumstances? How could they casually condemn hundreds to death, from peasants to duchesses, from teenagers to senile octogenarians? And how, in the end, could they justify themselves by declaring, in all sincerity, that they had merely done their patriotic duty? In this book, first published in 1909 and now re-published with additional notes for the 21st-century reader, acclaimed historian G. Lenotre examines the Revolutionary Tribunal, its beginnings, its personnel, its premises, its most famous trials of revolutionaries and royalty, and finally its downfall as the Terror careened to its bloody conclusion. His extensive archival research strips away layers of myth and presents a factual and fascinating history of a dark and often misunderstood era."

Excerpt from The Tribunal of the Terror: A Study of Paris in 1793-1795 In writing this book my object has been, not to re-tell in detail the terrible history of the Revolutionary Tribunal, but rather to attempt to reconstitute the life and appearance of the Palais de Justice during the evil days of the Revolution, and to outline the small group of social outcasts who at that time seized upon the old Parliament house and assumed the infamous task of applying the pitiless laws which the Terror extorted from the National Convention. I have applied myself, preferably, to the work of bringing up before my readers eyes the scenes and actors in a tragedy of which certain eminent historians have, in a definite manner, studied the causes, circumstances, and results. I have thus been led to revise and complete the little we knew of the topographical position of the Tribunal, which tradition had too summarily restricted to a small part of the huge Palais. There being no contemporary description of events to guide me, I have been obliged, in bringing this minute and sometimes disheartening work to a successful end, to obtain information from many hitherto unexplored sources. A line in a report, a phrase in a proves verbal, a precise statement in a deposition, the accounts of architects, the estimates of contractors, and even the bills of tradespeople and workmen have supplied me with indications which substantiated each other and formed as a whole a sort of re-edification. Fortunately the French National Archives abound in documents of the nature of those mentioned above. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
