Descrição:

Sometime in January of 1776 (published in February), a thin document containing the powerful words of an angry citizen began to circulate and change public opinion. In Common Sense, an anonymous 50-page pamphlet, the colonist Thomas Paine attacked King George III. Paine explained that his own revolt against the king had began with Lexington and Concord. Paine declared that the time had come for colonists to proclaim and independent republic. Common Sense sold nearly 500,000 copies and was widely applauded.
