Book Description
Excerpt from Testimonials to the Merits of Thomas Paine, Author of "Common Sense," "the Crisis," "Rights of Man," "English System of Finance," "Age of Reason," &C., &C Had Thomas Paine been a' Grecian Or Roman patriqt, m olden times, and performed the same public serw'c'es as he did for this country, he would have had the honor of an Apotheosis. The Pantheon would have been Opened to him, and we should at 3th18_ day regardhis memory with, the same veneration that we do that Of Socrates and Cicero. But posterity will do him justice. Time, that destroys envy and establishes truth, will clothe his character in the habiliments that justlt long to it. We cannot resist the disposi tion to say, that m suffering the home of the author of Common Sense, The Crisis, and The Rights of Man, to lie neglected, in the fi1st place; and secondly, in permitting it to be violated, and his bones shipped Off to a foreign country, contrary to all thelawsofde cency and civilization, we have added nothing to'the justice or dignity of our national character; and we shall rejoice if impartial history tax us not with a gross departure from both.

Book Description
This acclaimed biography “provides the most comprehensive assessment yet of [the Founding Father’s] controversial reputation” (Joseph J. Ellis, The New York Times Book Review). After leaving London for Philadelphia in 1774, Thomas Paine became one of the most influential political writers of the modern world and the greatest radical of a radical age. Through writings like Common Sense, 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. Thomas Paine and the Promise of America fiercely traces the revolutionary spirit that runs through American history—and demonstrates how that spirit is rooted in Paine’s legacy. With passion and wit, Kaye shows how Paine turned Americans into radicals—and how we have remained radicals ever since.
