92 Revolution & Total War with Dr David Bell

From war crimes and Terror to Napoleon and nationalism, unpack the fascinating dynamics of total war in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

This interview with Dr David Avrom Bell explores the changing nature of warfare, the impact of the Enlightenment on total war, and the importance of rhetoric in this consequential struggle. We also examine controversial debates, including allegations of genocide in the Vendée and whether “the Terror” ever truly existed.

The perfect conclusion to our deep dive on the War of the First Coalition in 1793 – this episode is unmissable!
