"The book I've most enjoyed recently is David Como's Radical Parliamentarians and the English Civil War. His extraordinary research reveals crucial radical networks, ultimately committed to religious liberty and popular sovereignty." --Ann Hughes, Times Higher Education

"This is a complex, significant study of the Civil War." -- Melinda S. Zook, Journal of Modern History

"Radical Parliamentarians is a worthy post-revisionist successor to the seminal Whig and Marxist texts of Gardiner and Hill. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the English Revolution and the radical Puritans who shaped its course." -- John Coffey, University of Leicester, Journal of Ecclesiastical History

"It is a rich and important study and will become an established feature of the historiographical landscape." -- Michael J. Braddick, The Seventeenth Century

"David Como's monograph is a stunning achievement. It is a landmark study of the roots, development and influence of radical parliamentarianism which opens up new avenues of research and builds imaginatively on recent scholarship in early modern political and religious history. Its ambition is considerable....Como has produced a magnificent work of erudite and eloquent historical scholarship which has profound implications for our understandings not only of the civil wars, but for seventeenth-century political history more broadly." -- Lloyd Bowen, Cardiff University, EHR
