The Spectre of Babeuf is a long-awaited introduction to Babeuf written by Ian Birchall. Little known to today's radicals, Babeuf and his conspiracy of equals were in some ways the direct historical precursor of the revolutionary socialist movement. Ian Birchall, a prolific writer and authority on Babeuf, has produced a long-awaited introduction to him - his historical significance, his ideas and his practice in revolutionary France.
"The story of the French Revolution has been the subject of countless books and articles, but the story of Gracchus Babeuf has rarely been told in the English language, so this reprint of Ian Birchall's 1997 book looking at the French revolutionary is enormously welcome...as Ian Birchall's excellent book shows us, we still have much to learn from the revolutionary life of Gracchus Babeuf."
