The revolutionary pamphlet that helped ignite the fire of American independence—now available in a beautifully bound hardback edition, perfect for gifting or collecting. Written in 1775 by Thomas Paine, Common Sense was a bold and persuasive call for the American colonies to break free from British rule. With powerful logic and stirring prose, Paine challenged monarchy, championed liberty, and inspired a fledgling nation to rise. Paine, a recent immigrant from England and a friend of Benjamin Franklin, had already made a name for himself as a poet and anti-slavery activist. With Common Sense, he became one of the most influential voices of the American Revolution.
