Written during a pivotal moment in the American Revolution, this influential pamphlet advocates for independence from British rule. Thomas Paine's accessible style, resembling a sermon and incorporating Biblical references, resonated with the common people, making complex ideas understandable. Its immediate success and widespread circulation marked it as a significant work in American history, with historian Gordon S. Wood deeming it the most incendiary pamphlet of the revolutionary period. The arguments presented played a crucial role in shaping the colonists' views on independence.
