14259X2 The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, Cambridge: 1986. 294 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. The end of the nineteenth century in France was marked by political scandals, social unrest, dissension, and "decadence." But the fin de siŽcle was also an era of great social and scientific progress, a time when advantages previously reserved for the privileged began to be shared by the many. In this thoroughly engaging history, Eugen Weber describes ways of life, not as described by general history, but as contemporaries experienced them. Includes notes and an index.
