Böcker av Gary S. De Krey

The Levellers sought to restructure the state in 1647-9 around popular consent and liberty for conscience, especially in their Agreement of the People. Following the Levellers, Volume Two examines the later political efforts of Leveller spokesmen like John Lilburne, John Wildman, and Richard Overton, and their followers.

This book reinterprets the Leveller authorships of John Lilburne, Richard Overton and William Walwyn, and foregrounds the role of ordinary people in petitioning and protest during an era of civil war and revolution.

Gary De Krey examines the political history of England, Scotland and Ireland from the Interregnum through Britain's eighteenth-century rise to power. The political and religious issues that interrupted settlement in the Stuart kingdoms until after the Glorious Revolution are also analysed.
