Hill, Christopher - The World Turned Upside Down - Radical Ideas During the English Revolution (Published in by The Folio Society in 2016. Bound in blocked cloth. Set in Baskerville. 464 pages. Frontispiece and 24 pages of colour and black & white plates. Plain slipcase. 9.5" x 6.25". Historian Christopher Hill examines the fascinating radical groups that grew up around the English Civil War, and the roots of a revolution that never happened. Introduced by Bernard Capp. The World Turned Upside Down is a comprehensive account of the social and religious upheaval caused by the English Civil War in the 1640s and 1650s. Much of the old order had been swept away or transformed, and into this volatile atmosphere of change came various radical groups looking to remake their country. In this fascinating book, Hill looks not at the revolution that happened, but at the remarkable revolution that could have been. )
