Description
Published anonomously in 1776, the year of the American Declaration of Independence, Paine's "Common Sense" became an immediate bestseller, with fifty-six editions printed in that year alone. It was this pamphlet, more than any other factor, which helped to spark off the movement that established the independence of the United States.
