Paine: Political Writings (Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought) - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

Born in Norfolk in 1737, Thomas Paine was arguably the single most influential political writer in the English-speaking world during the great upheavals of the American and French Revolutions. For presentation in the acclaimed Cambridge Texts series the distinguished intellectual historian Bruce Kuklick brings together all the classic texts--Common Sense, The Rights of Man, and The Age of Reason--as well as the first of Paine's papers on The Crisis of 1776. The customary series features--a brief chronology, notes for further reading, and a succinct and lucid introduction to the principal themes of each text--are all appended.
