Benjamin Franklin was a writer, a philosopher, a scientist, a politician, a patriot, a Founding Father, an inventor, and publisher. He helped with the founding of the United States of America and changed the world with his discoveries about electricity. His writings such as Poor Richards' Almanac have provided wisdom for 17 years to the colonies.
Translated into a dozen languages, printed in hundreds of editions, and read by millions of people, Franklin's autobiography has had an influence perhaps unequalled by any other book by an American writer. Written ostensibly as a letter to his son William, the autobiography offers Franklin's reflections on philosophy and religion, politics, war, education, material success and the status of women. This edition of the autobiography, prepared by the editors of "The Papers of Benjamin Franklin", is drawn with care from the original manuscript in Franklin's handwriting now in the Henry E. Huntington Library and Art Gallery. The introduction by Leonard Labaree places the autobiography in literary and historical contexts. In the foreword, Edmund Morgan writes about Franklin's dual allegiance as an American and a subject of an English king, and his emergence as a leader of the American Revolution. This edition also includes biographical notes, a chronology of Franklin's life, and an updated bibliography.

He is the best demonstration of the old style American dream men -- industrious, lucky, astute, with subtle proudness.
评分禁不住想到知道上那个人问:请问本杰明富兰克林自传是谁写的。
评分13条美德看起来简单,要践行一生绝非易事。自传写得也符合Benjamin的特点,精简不浮夸,不像现在垃圾商业书,其实精华不超过10页但硬生生写个200页。
评分奋斗历程和美德约束这部分很吸引我,读的过程中体会到会写的魅力。
