Summary

"The Sword of Honor; or, The Foundation of the French Republic" by Eugène Sue is a historical fiction novel set during the electrifying era of the French Revolution, tracing the fortunes of the Lebrenn family, steadfast champions against tyranny, and illustrating their struggles for equality. John Lebrenn, shouldering the weight of his family's past sacrifices, navigates the dangerous political landscape as he seeks to build a new republic. The story ignites in the shadows of Paris, within a clandestine building essential to the Lebrenn lineage, as the characters confront the oppressive world. Fueled by whispers of rebellion and clandestine meetings under the cover of night, this is a tale woven with historical resonance and social undertones, in which justice and uprising intertwine amidst the fight for liberty.
