"England is not a Free People, till the Poor that have no Land, have a free allowance to dig and labour the Commons..." Gerrard Winstanley, 1649

Gerrard Winstanley is the leader of a 17th Century religious group that believes the land should be owned communally. His convictions bring him into conflict with both the state and the church.
