Book Description
The Life of Benjamin Franklin Vol. 2 is an account of the life and times of Benjamin Franklin written by none other than Franklin himself. Considered to be one of the founding fathers of America, Franklin was also a leading author, a politician, a political theorist, a printer, an inventor, a scientist, a statesman, and a diplomat. Perhaps one of the most famous Americans, known around the world, Franklin's life story in his own words makes for an interesting read for any individual intrigued by this man or the humble beginnings of America. The second volume in his two volume set begins half-way through Franklin's life, at the point when the Wilkes Riots were occurring (1768) and Franklin was named President of the American Philosophical society. The rest of the volume continues through pivotal events to the end of Franklin's exciting and informative life. The events discussed are both those that Franklin experiences personally (such as his sixty-seventh birthday) and world events upon which Franklin feels qualified to offer his educated opinion. Each of the topics explored give the reader a glimpse into both Franklin's life and also the world stage that would lead to the American Revolution and the birth of a nation. The book, The Life of Benjamin Franklin Vol. 2 is a wonderful read for anyone interested in Benjamin Franklin and his life through his own words. This text is also an amazing resource for individuals interested in early American politics and history along with world history and events that surround the American Revolution. This book is an engaging read and an interesting exploration of life prior to the American Revolution and the politics that went into creating an independent nation that would rival other countries as a world power during its long history.
