Common Sense
About this book
? What if one pamphlet could ignite a revolution?
Published in 1776, Thomas Paine's Common Sense is one of the most powerful and influential works in American history. With fiery language and uncompromising conviction, Paine urged the thirteen colonies to break free from British rule and embrace independence.
Written in plain, direct style for everyday readers, Common Sense made complex political ideas accessible and persuasive. Paine's arguments against monarchy and tyranny, and his vision of liberty and self-governance, stirred the hearts of thousands and laid the intellectual groundwork for the American Revolution.
? Why this book matters:
Sold over 100,000 copies in its first year—unprecedented for its time.
A cornerstone of American democracy and revolutionary thought.
Still resonates today as a passionate defense of freedom, equality, and self-rule.
More than a historical document, Common Sense is a timeless call to question injustice, think independently, and fight for liberty.
