A major new biography of Antoine Barnave—the politician and writer who advocated for a constitutional monarchy in revolutionary France. Antoine Barnave was one of the most influential statesmen in the early French Revolution. He was a didactic man of austere morals and vaulting ambition who dressed as an English dandy, running up considerable tailor’s bills.
