"An unprecedented degree of accuracy, thoroughness, and editorial guidance...The edition's handling of textual and bibliographical matters is exemplary...Quite [a] remarkable editorial achievement. If there is an ironic tension between its painstaking scholarly commitment and Winstanley's rejection of humane learning, it is as much to the credit of the editors and Oxford University Press as it is to Winstanley." --Milton Quarterly

"A landmark in seventeenth-century studies...The two volumes will be of immediate value to those working on the Interregnum, Milton, and the longer trajectory of English radicalism. But they also offer those whose interests are less directly historical a powerful writer to consider in thinking about prophecy, religious rhetoric, and modes of literary influence and revision in the early modern period." --Studies in English Literature 1500-1900

"Underpinned as they are by formidable learning, these volumes will become the standard edition. The texts are clearly presented, uncluttered by editorial comment or annotation, but the whole is set carefully in context by the textual introduction, which scrupulously details textual variations and the editorial decisions made here. Each publication has extensive notes which helpfully elucidate the text." -- Times Literary Supplement
