History by the Book meets to discuss historical fiction and non-fiction books. We explore the deeper stories behind historical events and periods in the past.e

Paris in Ruins by Sebastian Smee tells the dramatic story of the birth of the Impressionist movement amid the chaos of Paris during the “Terrible Year” of 1870-1871. As the city was besieged by Germans and then ravaged by civil war, artists like Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Claude Monet were deeply influenced by the political turmoil and the fragility of life. In this sharply focused account, Smee reveals how darkness and catastrophe gave rise to artistic genius.
