Looking at the work of the original American self help author. Wry, witty and irreverent. We will be ordering for our library.

I liked the author's ability to tie in the Franklin's persona with the author's. His use of compare and contrast with his own life illustrated Franklin's brilliance, eccentricities and limitations in a more accessible way for the reader. This book has encouraged me to seek out more books by the author.

Ben Franklin was so many things to so many different people that it's hard not to like him. For that reason, if you like old Ben you need to read this book. You'll be better for it.

While I am still reading I love this book. I love the way in which the author presents Ben Franklin and the manner in which he has organized the work. A great intro and more to BF. bravo.
