About the Author
English-born Thomas Paine left behind hearth and home for adventures on the high seas at nineteen. Upon returning to shore, he became a tax officer, and it was this job that inspired him to write The Case of the Officers of Excise in 1772. Paine then immigrated to Philadelphia, and in 1776 he published Common Sense, a defense of American independence from England. After returning to Europe, Paine wrote his famous Rights of Man as a response to criticism of the French Revolution. He was subsequently labeled as an outlaw, leading him to flee to France where he joined the National Convention. However, in 1793 Paine was imprisoned, and during this time he wrote the first part of The Age of Reason, an anti-church text which would go on to be his most famous work. After his release, Paine returned to America where he passed away in 1809.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a defense of the British constitution against the author's detractors, demanding that the people of England ought and must rescue themselves from the disgrace of monarchy, explaining that hereditary monarchy is particularly bad and that the Hanoverian succession in England is contemptible. The author argues that the rights of man are imprescriptible, we should not be bound by the decisions of our ancestors, and that governments should be democratically elected. The author's main ideas rest upon an antipathy to monarchy which they state is based upon historical precedents and experience. This book is an important work for students of British history and politics, as it provides a unique perspective on the debate over the role of monarchy in the late 18th century.
