(2) K-3 Illustrated by Edwin Fotheringham. As a political editorialist, the outspoken and opinionated immigrant Paine (1737–1809) wrote compellingly of the political situation in the American colonies, culminating with his magnum opus, Common Sense. Marsh's clear prose style and short, declarative sentences allow readers to follow events easily. Making the point that words matter, Fotheringham flings hand-lettered words, phrases, and written documents across the pages marking turning points in Paine's life. Timeline. Bib.
