The Life of Thomas Paine - With a History of his Literary, Political and Religious Career in America, France, and England - Moncure Daniel Conway -
Brand: Cambridge University Press
Description
Conway's two-volume biography of revolutionary author Thomas Paine (1737–1809) did much to inspire a reassessment of Paine's importance in the 'age of revolutions'. Paine's political pamphlets influenced the American Declaration of Independence, and he was later a member of the French Convention, voting against the execution of Louis XVI.
