New 6×9 inch paperback edition. “A Tale of Two Cities” is a novel set in London and Paris before and during the French Revolution, and depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. The cover is a 1789 engraving titled “The Third Estate carrying the Clergy and the Nobility on its back.”
