Nosemonkey’s Reviews > The Enlightenment that Failed: Ideas, Revolution, and Democratic Defeat, 1748-1830 > Status Update

I've bought the first in Israel's Enlightenment when it came out in hardback c.25 years ago. I've still not read it. I have two more in the series unread on the shelf. I'm tackling this one via audiobook - with a *terrible* narrator - while walking the dog, and Israel insists at the start that it's important to have read something like *five* of his other books to get it. Ha! Wish me luck...
