Product Description
The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; but, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Life tale. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin’s death, this work has become one of the most legendary and influential examples of autobiography ever written. Franklin’s account of his life is divided into four parts, shiny the different periods at which he wrote them. There are actual breaks in the narrative between the first three parts, but Part Three’s narrative continues into Part Four lacking an authorial break (only an editorial one).

Forgive me America, but I could not stand this book. If his life was so fantastic, it seems it would be alot more appealing than this book shows. The only excellent, to some extent inspirational part was that part about moral perfection. Sorry to say, it did not change my life. (Of course, I had to read the book for school, so that may be part of my rage towards it)

Seriously… anyone that excise this book anything additional than 5 stars is a perfect idiot. He is a hero.

The Olde English Writing Style made this book reasonably painful for me to read. Although the content is very appealing, if this was not required reading I don’t reflect I would have mustered through it….

Sometimes pastiches work well, like Bach’s B Minor Mass. Not so this autobiography. Thrown together, arbitrary, sinfully pedestrian, this is one book that you can easily miss in your fleeting life. Franklin shows you he’s just a regular guy with regular thought processes. He drifts through life sometimes helping people and sometimes taking advantage of them. He may be an early humanitarian, but he is also an early capitalist, and he knows what he wants. Fantastic, so does Ted Turner, but you don’t see us going ape for his life tale, do you? Franklin was truly one of our greatest founding fathers, but you won’t get a glimmer of that from this book. Reading anyone else’s account of Franklin’s life would be a much more rewarding experience. Go there if you must do Franklin.
