About this book
In the Name of Liberty: A Story of the Terror appeared in 1905 from The Century Co., written by Owen Johnson (1878-1952), an American novelist whose father, Robert Underwood Johnson, edited the Century Magazine. The novel opens in August 1792 on the Rue Maugout in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine and follows Barabant, a young revolutionary journalist, and Nicole, a girl of the quarter, as the Revolution hardens into the Reign of Terror. Johnson wrote it before the Lawrenceville school stories and Stover at Yale made him famous, and it shows his early ambition to handle serious historical material. For readers of French Revolution fiction it stands alongside the era's popular Terror romances, grounded in real Parisian geography and politics.
