Thomas Paine was one of the most remarkable political writers of the modern world and the greatest radical of a radical age.
Through writings like Common Sense--and words such as The sun never shined on a cause of greater worth, We have it in our power to begin the world over again, and These are the times that try men's souls--he not only turned America's colonial rebellion into a revolutionary war but, as Harvey J.
Kaye demonstrates, articulated an American identity charged with exceptional purpose and promise.
