Reviews for People and Parliament: Representative Rights and the English Revolution
'This re-interpretation of the Triennial Act of 1641 is important. It dispels some persistently repeated misunderstandings, and should lead to a reassessment of the initial aims of the Long Parliament' - Norah Carlin, author of The Causes of the English Civil War
