The Thomas Paine Reader

More about the book

This omnibus edition features Thomas Paine's pivotal works, including an essential short essay, Agrarian Justice, and the restored Third Part of The Age of Reason. Paine's Common Sense played a crucial role in rallying support for the American Revolution, while The American Crisis aimed to uplift the Continental Army's spirits. In The Rights of Man, he advocates for inherent human rights and representative government. Paine's deistic beliefs shape his views on religion, making The Age of Reason a significant exploration of faith through reason and nature.
