The massacres at Machecoul marked the beginning of a popular insurgency in western France called the War of Vendee, in turn igniting the ferocious republican response known today as the Terror. This story explores why these small-town massacres occurred, how they may have unfolded, and what the local and national repercussions of the murders were. 410 0$aMarquette studies in history ;$vno. 1. 607 $aFrance$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aMachecoul (France)$xHistory 607 $aMachecoul (France)$xReligious life and customs 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xAtrocities 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xReligious aspects 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yWars of the Vende?e, 1793-1832$xAtrocities 676 $a944.167 700 $aWoell$b Edward J.$f1965-$01467841 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778360503321 996 $aSmall-town martyrs and murderers$93678695 997 $aUNINA
