'[ Lyons writes] not a history of restoration and reaction, but a history of memory and forgetfulness of the revolutionary and Napoleonic past; not a history of national awakening, but rather a history of national construction ...[ Lyons has] a thoroughly profound foreign-language ability... the all-embracing structure of his book already reveals the effort made to attain new perspectives. [ The book] is to be recommended as a valuable synthesis, combining a solid account with the latest research trends'. - Translated from J.Schmidt-Funke, H-Soz-u-Kult 'A stimulating book... valuable in overturning the numerous assumptions and over-simplifications that often characterize interpretations of the history of the period.' - M.Rowe, European History Quarterly
