Benjamin Franklin, Self-Revealed unfolds as a vivid inner portrait, anchored in Franklin’s own writings and framed by careful biographical critique.This volume offers a clear, accessible biographical study, weaving together Franklin’s voice with literary analysis to illuminate his influence on early american thought and late colonial america.
