Anybody want an education about the French Revolution? Accurate? I don’t know but probably as accurate as any other version.

Several years back, I decided that I wanted to read “Les Misérables” by Victor Hugo, in the unabridged version. I had to get it from the local university library and it came in 3 thick volumes. I read it in it’s entirety and it contains more than any normal person could possibly want to know about the French Revolution.

Yes, I know that “Les Misérables” is a work of fiction.

That’s dedication. I only had to read the short version...but in French.
