What a neat guy! There's a lot to say here about the value of honesty and industriousness. The book is feel-good chicken soup for the soul and the first 65% of this book is utterly fantastic. You should go read it now. Go! And then it gets boring and starts talking more about events than about the man himself. The ending is unsatisfying. Blue-balled by Benjamin Franklin again. Hilarious and interesting! A classic. Benjamin Franklin is such a fascinating man. I am humbled by what he was able to accomplish in his lifetime. He involved himself in all aspects of life. While I thought I knew a lot about his accomplishments, his autobiography opened my eyes to a lot more. I picked up The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin to meet part of Modern Mrs. Darcy reading challenge. I had to read a book from the backlist of a new favorite author. In his book, How to Win Friends & Influence People, Dale Carnegie repeatedly referenced Ben Franklin. Read more An informative, illuminating and fun to read account of the life of one of the founding fathers Autobiography starts as a personal letter and is thus a very personal and interesting recounting of Franklin's early years. The latter part is far more formal being by then a work intended for publication. Both parts still retain the wit and candor of Benjamin Franklin. The book presents us a man of great industry, intellect and with a dedication to the good of his fellows. A very good read for anyone interested in reading about a great man. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
