Ben FranklinBy Timothy CoffieldI was always a fan of Ben Franklin and wanted to learn more.

A well-written book on a fascinating character.By Jayvee N.In short; by reading this book you will understand why Benjamin Franklin is such an exceptional character. Everyone knows the name and maybe an anecdote or two; but to truly appreciate Franklin you need to know the degree to which he was respected during his times and also how much; to this day; 200 years later; we are still in his debt. To this end; Alexander Kennedy does a great job; constantly putting Franklin's life in perspective. Many books just get the facts out; but the exceptional book; like this one; explains things.
