“Common Sense” was a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine in 1776. Similar to James Otis’ impassioned speech years earlier, this impactful essay would eventually be considered one of the causes of the Revolutionary War. It made a straightforward argument for the independence of the American colonies by claiming that the British monarchy was tyrannical and corrupt. Essentially, Paine laid all of the problems in Colonial America at the feet of corrupt politicians in Parliament and those responsible for British rule.

Additionally, he suggested that the only true solution would be colonial independence. The pamphlet was immensely popular on both sides of the Atlantic, selling over 500,000 copies in its first year of publication, and its successfulness of making a clear and persuasive argument for starting the fight for American independence makes Paine’s work one of the most significant causes of the American Revolution. Before the English-born Paine published “Common Sense,” the accomplished writer was an early manager of one of the most successful colonial magazines, Pennsylvania Magazine.
