The ancien régime [by] C. B. A. Behrens. --
"The term [ancien regime] was first used by contemporaries to describe retrospectively the social and political structure in France which the Revolution destroyed. It is shown here to be applicable to different countries at different dates - for example, to Russia at the end of the nineteenth century - but it is discussed principlally in relation to France in the fateful years between 1748 and 1789." --book jacket
