"The American Revolution wasn’t born on a battlefield. It was born in libraries. It was born in pamphlets. John Adams believed that the political pamphlets, like John Dickinson’s Letters from a Pennsylvania Farmer and Thomas Paine’s Common Sense of the 1760s and 1770s were significant catalysts for the American Revolution. He observed that the revolution occurred “in the Minds and Hearts of the People,” via that era’s relentless and numerous pamphlets, and essays." https://t.co/lBnuZ8b7if
