About “Letters from a farmer in Pennsylvania”
Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania is a series of essays written by John Dickinson, a lawyer and legislator from Pennsylvania, and published under the pseudonym "A Farmer" from 1767 to 1768. The twelve letters were widely read and reprinted in the Thirteen Colonies. They played a key role in uniting colonists against the Townshend Acts, helping to build opposition that led to the American Revolution. Historians consider the impact of the letters unmatched until Thomas Paine's Common Sense in 1776. The success of the letters brought Dickinson significant recognition.
