Reviews for The Agreements of the People, the Levellers, and the Constitutional Crisis of the English Revolution

"Won Book of the Week at the University of Buckingham (7th August 2013) ""The [historiographical] landscape is altered in sometimes startling, but always refreshing, ways and, for those interested in the English revolution, the development of constitutional thought and the sources and character of early modern radicalism, this is an indispensable text."" - J.C. Davis, Parliamentary History"
