The Leveller Revolution

From the back cover: “From the raucous streets of London and the clattering printers’ workshops that stoked the uprising to the rank and file of the New Model Army and the furious Putney debates, where Oliver Cromwell presided over arguments about the future of English democracy, the Levellers are central figures in the history of democracy. In this thrilling narrative, John Rees brings to life the men and women who demanded freedom in the heat of the 1640s civil wars and changed British history.”
