This is a short, concise, and easy-to-read biography on Thomas Paine and his major accomplishments to the American cause of liberty and independence. The inclusion of "Common Sense" is a bonus because the reader can see just how much, despite its unfamiliarity with many people, it foresaged the Declaration of Independence, as the author correctly asserts. Paine was definitely instrumental in promoting the patriot cause of separation from Great Britain and him being an Englishman himself made his message that much more poignant and indeed genuine.
