Abstract:"In the forty years after the Revolution of 1789, the peasants and former seigneurs of the isolated and arid region of the Corbieres, in southern Languedoc, fought a protracted battle over the consequences of revolutionary change
Central to this conflict was control of the rough hillsides or garrigues used as sheep pastures, which the poorer peasantry seized and cleared."--BOOK JACKET
"Professor McPhee's book highlights two significant new perspectives on the Revolution of 1789
