''Paris Under The Commune'' is a historical non-fiction book written by John Leighton, first published in 1970. The book explores the events that took place in Paris during the Commune of 1871, a revolutionary government that ruled Paris for two months. Leighton provides a detailed account of the social, political, and economic conditions that led to the Commune, as well as the events that occurred during its brief existence. The author examines the role of the working class in the Commune, the establishment of a revolutionary government, and the violent suppression of the movement by the French army. The book also includes descriptions of the major figures involved in the Commune, including Louise Michel, a prominent anarchist and feminist, and Thiers, the leader of the French government. Leighton’s work is considered an important contribution to the study of the Commune, providing a comprehensive and insightful analysis of this pivotal moment in French history.It cannot be true. I will not believe it. It cannot be possible that Paris is to be again bombarded: and by whom? By Frenchmen! In spite of the danger I was told there was to be apprehended near Neuilly, I wished to see with my own eyes what was going on. So this morning, the 8th April, I went to the Champs Elysees.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
