Thomas Paine was famous for writing "Common Sense" (1776), "The Crisis" (1776-1777), "The Rights of Man" (1791-1792), and "Age of Reason" (1794-1796).
In 1776, America was in turmoil-- of enlightenment and revolution. Thomas Paine inspired Americans to action, and soon came to symbolize the spirit of the Revolution. His elegantly persuasive pieces inspired the hearts and minds of those fighting for freedom. He was later outlawed in Britain, jailed in France, and finally labeled an atheist upon his return to America. "Common Sense" sold 500,000 copies in 1776, yet this true Colonial patriot died in poverty and obscurity.Wiki User
