Fourth of July

I know I'm a bit late, but I thought it would be nice to pay homage to one of the many pillars of the American Revolution and one of my personal heroes: Thomas Paine. So, for those of you who'd like to learn a little more about this lesser-known revolutionary, here are a few sites you can skim:

Brief Biography
Books/Pamphlets By Paine (Includes Excerpts)

For those of you who haven't already read it, I highly recommend his pamphlet entitled "Common Sense." It's a quick read and you can pick it up at any book store for under ten dollars.
