Mer om författaren

HAZEL BURGESS is an Australian researcher with undergraduate and doctoral degrees from the University of Sydney, Australia. She has spent many years searching for the truth of the private individual behind the public face of the eighteenth-century radical pamphleteer, Thomas Paine. This collection of hitherto unknown and few little-known writings reveals glimpses of the man of whom history knows little.

Recensioner i media

'Burgess provides the finely detailed explanations of the circumstances in which most of the pieces were published ... A Collection of Unknown Writings suggests that we need not perfectly understand an individual to understand or appreciate their writings.' - TLS
