Description

The Levellers and the English Revolution by Henry Noel Brailsford provides a comprehensive history of the Leveller movement, a significant aspect of the English Revolution. This book offers a detailed examination of the Leveller's political views and their impact on the period.

Brailsford's work is notable for its Marxist perspective, which may influence the author's interpretation of certain historical events. The book focuses on William Walwyn, a prominent Leveller, and attempts to portray him as a socialist. However, the author's approach to presenting the evidence may be seen as selective.

For those interested in the history of the English Revolution and the Leveller movement, this book offers a valuable insight into the period. With its detailed analysis and comprehensive coverage, it is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand the complexities of this significant historical event.
