The Crisis

""The Crisis"" is a collection of sixteen pamphlets written by Thomas Paine during the American Revolution. Published in 1776-1783, these pamphlets were aimed at boosting the morale of the American soldiers and citizens who were fighting for their independence from Great Britain. Paine's writing is passionate and persuasive, urging his readers to remain steadfast in their commitment to the cause of freedom. He argues that the American Revolution is not just a struggle for independence, but a fight for the rights and dignity of all people. Paine's words became famous, and his phrase ""These are the times that try men's souls"" is still remembered today. This 1877 edition of ""The Crisis"" includes all sixteen pamphlets, providing readers with a vivid and powerful account of one of the most important periods in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
