Book Synopsis
By telling the story of France’s noncitizen soldiers - who included not only men born abroad but also Jews and blacks whose citizenship rights were subject to contestation - Christopher Tozzi sheds new light on the roots of revolutionary France’s inability to integrate its national community despite the inclusionary promise of French republicanism.

Trade Review

Brown, Binghamton University, State University of New York, author of War, Revolution, and the Bureaucratic State: Politics and Army Administration in France, 1791–1799
