Synopsis

In the second half of 2019, the themes of Democracy, Tyranny, Sovereignty, Parliament and Constitution are writ large across the body politic of Britain. Analogies are therefore being made to the constitutional crises that resulted in the English Revolution of the 1640s and the suppression of democratic forces in 1649. As the sub-title of this book suggests, the documents re-published are primary sources of information and therefore essential reading for anyone wanting to understand the causes and events that unfolded in Burford in May 1649, and the parallels that can be drawn with Britain's modern day constitutional turmoil. They are: 'England’s Standard Advanced or A Declaration from M. Will. Thompson and the oppressed People of this nation'; 'An Agreement of the People'; 'The Declaration of Lieutenant Generall Crumwell'; 'A Full Narative of All the proceedings betweene His Excellency the Lord Fairfax and the Mutineers'; 'A Narrative of the proceedings of His Excellencie the Lord Generall Fairfax, in the reducing of the Revolted Troops'; 'The Levellers (falsely so called) Vindicated'; 'A True Relation of the Proceedings in the Business of Burford with other Discourse of public concernment'; 'The Levellers Designe Discovered'; and, 'Sea-Green & Blue See which Speaks True or Reason contending with Treason'.
