The American Crisis (Unabridged)

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Paine's stirring pamphlets aim to boost American morale during the Revolutionary War's hardships. He calls out 'summer soldiers' who abandon the cause in tough times, praising those who remain steadfast. He argues that overcoming tyranny requires struggle, and a hard-won victory is cherished more than an effortless one. Paine paints a vivid picture of potential horrors under British rule to urge continued resistance and warns against the dangers of complacency. He emphasizes the potential for a glorious future if the colonists persevere.
