Worth every penny
outstanding
The life of Freedom's Founding Father I bet that very few people would name Thomas Paine.That is unfortunate and would be fixed quickly if this book were more widely read. "Thomas Paine: Apostle of Freedom" devotes little time to Paine's early years, focusing mainly on his life after arriving in America a few years before Independence. Before reading this fine biography, I had not given Thomas Paine much thought beyond being the author of "Common Sense".I now realize the many roles he played in both the American and French revolutions and in furthering the cause of freedom and liberty in an age of monarchy. Also check out: - "Tom Paine and Revolutionary America" by Eric Foner Highly Recommended!
A good look at a revolutionary figure One of the themes that seemed to run through Paine's life was a commitment to ideology that often had negative effects.While he was a man who backed his words with actions, he did it at a cost:he had few lifelong relationships, he was often broke and he even spent a year in jail, with the threat of execution constantly hanging over him.In the conflict between idealism and practicality, Paine favored the former. Fruchtman's biography does a good job in describing this important historical figure.At times slow (I feel because there are points in Paine's life that aren't very interesting), it is overall a good, educational read.It makes me feel that if Paine had exercised a little bit more common sense in his own life, he might have been even a greater man.

17. In Praise of Poverty: Hannah More Counters Thomas Paine and the Radical Threat by Mona Scheuermann | |
Hardcover: 255
Pages
(2002-03)
list price: US$40.00 -- used & new: US$9.95 (price subject to change: see help) Asin: 0813122228 Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan | |
Editorial Review Book Description As much social history as literary study, In Praise of Poverty shows that More's writing to the poor specifically is intended to counter the perceived rabble rousing of Thomas Paine and other radicals active in the 1790s. In fact, her Village Politics was written by request of the Bishop of London as a direct response to Paine's Rights of Man. The much larger project of the Cheap Repository Tracts followed, and More was still writing in this vein two decades later. Mona Scheuermann effectively, and perhaps controversially, places More in the context of her period's debate about the poor, proving More to be not a defender of the poor but of the conservative upper-class values she so wholeheartedly espoused. |

Still relevant, still excellent Althought many parts of this deal with specific issues of Paine's time (especially Rights of Man), even after two centuries, the writings of Thomas Paine are able to stoke the fires of liberty in the soul of the reader with their passion, their fierce logic and their unexpected humor. Rights of Man comprises two long volumes written by Paine in response to English criticism of the French revolution.Although much that he says is ironic in light of events that occured after he penned these volumes, you can see the hope that the Revolution produced.He breaks government down to basic principles, pointing out the needs that government fulfills and the method by which they should be constructed.It is thought-provoking, even in the modern day and will make you look on politics of our own time with a new light.Rights of Man does drag a bit when Paine begins repeating himself, but it remains interesting and though-provoking. But Common Sense is the real treat.The pamplet that set a continent on fire is -- this was a surprise -- a thrill to read.I found myself actually laughing at Paine's sarcasm and satire -- his way of taking monarchy and absolutism and exposing them for the ridiculuous constructions that they are. Any student of history should read these volumes for their portrayal of late 18th century geopolitics.But you will find them to be unexpectedly entertaining.
