''It is not in numbers, but in unity, that our great strength lies. . .''
In his provocative pamphlet, Thomas Paine urged the Thirteen Colonies to break free from British rule. This revolutionary work marked the birth of a new and powerful nation. The English-born Paine combined effective political and ethical reasoning to create a polemic of unrivalled influence.
Paine''s compelling and persuasive writing style has ensured that Common Sense is now regarded as an historical and literary classic.
