THIERS, ADOLPHE

Additional reading Henri Malo, Thiers 17971877 (1932); and Charles H. Pomaret, Monsieur Thiers et son temps (1948), give an overly favourable interpretation of Thiers's work. A more balanced biography is Robert Christophe, Le Sicle de Monsieur Thiers (1966). R.L. Dreyfus, La Rpublique de M. Thiers, 18711873 (1930), also very favourable, provides an account of Thiers's policies during the first years of the Third Republic. The best studies on Thiers in English are the contributions of Charles Pouthas and J. Nere in the New Cambridge Modern History, vol. 1011 (196062). John Maudgridge Snowden Allison, Thiers and the French Monarchy (1926, reprinted 1968), remains an interesting study.
