AN EXAMINATION OF THE AGE OF REASON, OR AN INVESTIGATION OF TRUE AND FABULOUS THEOLOGY, BY THOMAS PAINE.

Boston: David West, 1794. 36pp. Disbound, scattered fox, light wear, Good+.

Conceding Paine's "indications of original conception and profound thought, of comprehension and sagacity, far beyond the vigour of ordinary minds," the author attacks his denial of the resurrection and other aspects of Christian doctrine. This is one of four 1794 American printings, issued in the same year as the London first.
