Delphi Complete Works of Thomas Chatterton

One of the Founding Fathers of the United States, the English-born political activist Thomas Paine was a philosopher, political theorist and revolutionary. He created two of the most influential pamphlets of the American Revolution, inspiring the rebels in 1776 to declare independence. His ideas reflected Enlightenment-era rhetoric of transnational human rights. The powerful pamphlet ‘Common Sense’ is the all-time bestselling American title, catering for the rebellious demand for independence from Great Britain.
