Overview
This striking hardback edition presents Thomas Paine's Common Sense, complete with gilded page edges and an embossed cover design.
Originally published anonymously, the pamphlet called Common Sense sparked a powerful response. Extolling the philosophy of self-determination, democracy and liberty, Thomas Paine's defence of American secession was a radical and inflammatory statement. Finding supporters on both sides of the Atlantic, Paine's defence of egalitarian principles nonetheless generated its fair share of enemies. Unapologetic, immensely persuasive and clearly written, the words of the world's first international revolutionary continue to offer valuable insights into the world we live in today. ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Ornate Classics are beautiful pocket editions of iconic literary works from across history. Presented with striking foil cover embossing, gilded page edges, and deluxe ivory paper, these editions make the perfect gift for lovers of classic literature.
