5.0 out of 5 stars Tom Paine, hero of the revolutionary war, January 4, 2012
The book contains various writings by Tom Paine and a novelized history of Tom Paine's life, mostly centering around his activities during the American Revolutionary War, when he supported by his clear writings and pamphlets, the cause of the revolution. He was viewed by some as a major factor in the survival of George Washington's army, particular during the days when this army almost fell apart, due to victories by the British and lack of equipment and funds to pay the soldiers. Once the war was over, he was given some unimportant posts in the American government, but moved to France to support the French revolution.
One of his own writings, The Age of Reason, was a treatise in support of his belief in God, but opposition to all organized religions as being false and hypocritical.
This led to opposition to his book and to him by many representatives of organized religions and to his denunciation by President Theodore Roosevelt as a "dirty little athiest." Relatively recently, he was finally honored by the U. S. Post Office with a postage stamp.
