A fresh new look at the Enlightenment intellectual who became the most controversial of America's founding fathers
Despite his being a founder of both the United States and the French Republic, the creator of the phrase "United States of America," and the author of Common Sense , Thomas Paine is the least well known of America's founding fathers. This edifying biography by Craig Nelson traces Paine's path from his years as a London mechanic, through his emergence as the voice of revolutionary fervor on two continents, to his final days in the throes of dementia. By acquainting us as never before with this complex and combative genius, Nelson rescues a giant from obscurity-and gives us a fascinating work of history.
Craig Nelson在HarperCollins、Hyperion和蘭登書屋擔任編輯近20年。其作品在《沙龍》、《布蘭德爾》、《文類》等眾多刊物上發錶。他曾接受《多彩世界》、《訪談》、《文檔》、《曼哈頓公司》、《每日新聞》、《齣版者周刊》、《閑暇時光》等多傢媒體專訪。其作品包括《第一位英雄》(The First Heroes)和《迷失》(Let's Get Lost)。
