(John) Green, John Richards Hedgehog, Humphrey A Residence in France During the Years 1792, 1793, 1794 and 1795, Part I. 1792 Described in a Series of Letters from an English Lady: with General and Incidental Remarks on the French Character and Manners Produced by Mary Munarin and David Widger "A Residence in France During the Years 1792, 1793, 1794 and 1795, Part I. 1792" is a historical account written in the late 18th century, notably during a time of significant political upheaval. The book takes the form of letters penned by an English lady, documenting her observations and experiences while residing in France amidst the turmoil of the French Revolution. The letters provide not only personal reflections but also broader commentary on French society, politics, and the chaotic atmosphere resulting from the revolution. The beginning of the book sets the stage for the author's exploration of France in the early months of the revolution. In her letters, she describes a noticeable shift from the earlier enthusiasm for revolutionary ideals to a growing sense of apathy and disillusionment among the populace. The author reflects on societal changes, the impact of the revolution on daily life, and her observations of political factions, such as the Jacobins and the moderates. Through vivid descriptions of events, emotions, and characters, the opening portion reveals the complexities and contradictions of a society in flux while foreshadowing the darker events to come in the context of the revolution.
