The most widely read American autobiography of all time, accompanied by a generous selection of Franklin's other, much-loved writings--in a hardcover Everyman's Library edition with a fantastic introduction by acclaimed historian Jill Lepore. EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY.
Benjamin Franklin's account of his rise from poverty and obscurity to affluence and fame, though not published during his lifetime, has charmed every generation of readers since it first appeared. But he is equally loved for his humorous, philosophical, parodic, and satirical writings, parables, and maxims, which he published under an astonishing number of pen names, including, notably, Poor Richard, the Busy-Body, and Silence Dogood. This hardcover edition of his masterly autobiography contains a richly varied selection of these beloved non-autobiographical writings.
