Description
The life of Benjamin Franklin is stranger than fiction. Its realities surpass the idealities of novelists. Imagination would scarcely venture to portray such victories over poverty, obscurity, dificulties, and hardships. The tact, application, perseverance, and industry that he brought to his life-work make him an example for all time...
The first and principal source of material for this book was Franklin's "Authbiography."
