John S. C. Abbott 
French Revolution of 1789 as Viewed in the Light of Republican Institutions [PDF ebook] 

For some years the author of this work has been collecting materials for writing the history of the French Revolution. With this object in view he has visited Paris, wishing also to become familiar with the localities rendered immortal by the varied acts of this drama-the most memorable tragedy, perhaps, which has as yet been enacted upon the theatre of time.
