À propos de ce livre audio

Witness the compelling and fascinating works of the man who inspired the American revolution.

Renowned for his political genius, philosophical wisdom, and artful prose, Thomas Paine is a legendary figure in American history whose legacy has shaped the course of the United States as we know it. His influential works became best sellers in their time and continue to touch the hearts and minds of millions of fans to this very day.

This eye-opening collection presents three of Paine’s most important writings, providing modern listeners with both an inspiring glimpse into the past and compelling philosophical arguments concerning deism, human rights, egalitarianism, and independence.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • Common Sense, a powerful and impassioned call to action which urges the 13 states to fight for their independence and form an egalitarian government
  • The Age of Reason, the three-part best seller which champions the religious position of deism and challenges organized religion
  • The Rights of Man, an enlightening text in support of the French Revolution which defines and defends the fundamental rights and liberties of its people

If you’re searching for an incredible philosophical collection which formed one of the foundations of 17th-century thought, or if you want to explore the profoundly persuasive arguments and viewpoints of the man who inspired the American War of Independence, then this collection is for you.

As a man who faced prison, ostracizing, and constant ridicule for his beliefs and criticisms, Thomas Paine is a testament to resilience and standing up for what you believe in.
