Recensioner i media

“De Krey puts forward arguments which will be of interest to the Levellers’ most devoted scholars. … The detail and scope of Following the Levellers is extraordinary. It is as much a major study of 17th-century radical political and religious culture and identity as it is a re-evaluation of the Levellers per se. … The [volume] is thoughtfully structured and the straightforwardness of the prose is effective.” (Edward Legon, Parliamentary History, Vol. 38 (3), 2019)
