How to read Common Sense by Thomas Paine without having to learn Old English as a second language.

If you want to read Common Sense, this book is the easiest way to do it. Here's why, it's translated in modern English. Common Sense by Thomas Paine in a language you can understand.

If you've ever tried to read it you know what I'm talking about. It was one of, if not the most influential books in American history. But it was written over 200 years ago and the old English it's written in, is nearly impossible to understand.

You have to read everything five times to make any sense of it, and even then, you're lucky if you understand it. There're words we don't use any more. The speaking style is basically backwards how we speak now, and the whole thing, is written in run on sentences. Try reading that. Try reading a book that completely turns up side down the way you would normally speak, with words sprinkled in that you don't know the meaning of, all written in sentences as long as a paragraph.
