Book Overview
Glenn Beck, the New York Times bestselling author of The Great Reset, revisits Thomas Paine's Common Sense. In any era, great Americans inspire us to reach our full potential. They know with conviction what they believe within themselves. They understand that all actions have consequences. And they find commonsense solutions to the nation's problems. One such American, Thomas Paine, was an ordinary man who changed the course of history by penning Common Sense, the concise 1776 masterpiece in which, through extraordinarily straightforward and indisputable arguments, he encouraged his fellow citizens to take control of America's future--and, ultimately, her freedom. Nearly two and a half centuries later, those very freedoms once again hang in the balance. And now, Glenn Beck revisits Paine's powerful treatise with one purpose: to galvanize Americans to see past government's easy solutions, two-party monopoly, and illogical methods and take back our great country.

Terrific read, hard for me to put down

If you are an American who feels in your gut that something is wrong in our country, but you can't quite put your finger on it, and you want to make sense out of your 'gut feelings', then this book is where to start your journey of discovery. It's easy to read, easy to understand, written using layman's terms, and has a listing of sources, should you choose to follow-up on anything contained within it's pages. This book is non-partisan, it was written for all Americans, no matter their political inclination.
Common Sense

Common Sense is a very timely book which high lights so much of what is wrong with our government. Our founding fathers gave us a perfect blue print for our nation's government, based on freedom, liberty, and a limited Federal government. This book is a modern-day version of Thomas Paine's book, which inspired so many to fight the revolutionary war. Kudos to Glenn Beck on a excellent book, with an easy to read format.
Thank heaven for Common Sense

Very informative, easy read. Beck provides ample references supporting his somewhat disconcerting claims. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and fully agree with the premise that it is time for a return to common sense. It is time for "we the people" to demand it.

Very well written with easy to understand information. Glenn cuts through the fog and smoke screens thrown up by the media, Obama administration and our incompetant congress. What a relief it is to read the real truth for a change. This book truly reveals just how corrupt our government has become.
Excellent Book, I've Read It Twice Already..

To start off, let me say that I've been a fan of Glenn Beck since before he was on Fox News. He was usually on point with the things he said and besides that, he never fails to entertain. I don't cling to one news organization or another, I listen to what is said and look for the FACTS, not slanted opinions. Facts are what this book contains and plenty of them. I've noticed that the liberal detractors have tried their best to put down this book, but I think its popularity speaks for itself. This book contains a lot of information and I would suggest that it's necessary to read it several times to fully grasp everything contained within. After the second time I read it, I went out and purchased the CD so I could share it with family who don't have time to read and to date, I've gotten a very positive consensus of it. I am a registered Independent so don't come at me saying I'm only sticking to what is partisan. I highly recommend this book and with it being less than $10, you can't go wrong.
