Sinopse

Franklin's exceptional array of interests and achievements are brilliantly documented in his Autobiography, which is regarded as a genre classic. This delightful self-portrait recalls Franklin's boyhood, his tenacity to achieve strong values, his work as a printer, experiments with electricity, his political career, his experiences during the French and Indian War, and more. It covers his life up to his prewar stay in London as a delegate of the Pennsylvania Assembly. This brilliantly written account told in an honest, open, and unaffected style, provides a beautifully intimate glimpse of the Founding Father known as "the wisest American."
