Norah Carlin has brought together sixty-six petitions from urban communities and military units addressed to parliament and the heads of the army from the crucial period between the Grand Remonstrance and just after the execution of King Charles I. After a brief introduction Norah Carlin's book provides a comprehensive collection of petitions supported by a meticulous contextualisation and backgrounding of each one and showing how they tie together, providing a useful service to any scholar of the regicide.
