Sobre IBD

This influential series of pamphlets, written by Thomas Paine during the American Revolutionary War, served as a powerful call to arms for the colonists. With his stirring prose, Paine sought to inspire the American people to persevere in their fight for independence from British rule. The essays address the challenges faced by the fledgling nation, rallying the spirit of resistance and articulating the moral and political justifications for revolution. 'The American Crisis' is remembered for its opening line, 'These are the times that try men’s souls,' and its enduring impact on the American cause.
