Benjamin Franklin: My Autobiography

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin details the life of one of the most accomplished Founding Fathers of the United States.

Franklin, born into humble circumstances, was self-educated, and rose to become an inventor of note, philosopher, satirist, political theorist, statesman, and diplomat. His contributions to American life are legendary.

His contributions to science, the arts, and things we take for granted today, including public libraries, schools, hospitals, newspapers, fire departments, the post office, even our defense forces, are almost unimaginable.
