After more than two decades of unprecedented political, social, and
religious upheaval, revolutionary thought and activity in Britain
continued to thrive even after the restoration of the monarchy in
1660. This highly original study, which draws on the reports of
both police and informers, follows the "radical underground" in
England from the eve of the Restoration to the collapse of the
northern rebellion in 1663. In a tale that winds its way across
England and into Scotland, Ireland, the Netherlands, and
Switzerland, Greaves examines how radicals remained united in their
common animosity to monarchy, prelacy, taxes, and popery. Although
ultimately unsuccessful, their conspiracies and rebellions
nonetheless fueled the drive for the repression of Nonconformists,
prompted the state to cultivate an elaborate network of informers,
and heightened the concern for domestic security.
