"Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania, to the Inhabitants of the British Colonies" by John Dickinson is a series of insightful letters penned during a time of growing tension between Britain and its American colonies, where a humble farmer steps forward to defend colonial rights against the overreach of the British Parliament, sounding the alarm about unjust taxation and oppressive laws that threaten the very foundation of their freedom, advocating for unity and collective resistance. The letters showcase a concerned citizen using his knowledge to rally the colonies, starting with a focus on New York's suspended assembly as a warning sign and moving to address the bigger problem. Dickinson's goal is to inspire his fellow colonists to stand together, urging them to take action to protect their liberties before it is too late.
