Franklin, a charmer in his time, charms across the centuries....The book,
like the man, is astute and delightful.The New Yorker

Every [chapter] is a literary gem.Samuel Eliot Morison

There have been numerous biographies of Benjamin Franklin, including his own notorious
autobiography. This is the most charming and captivating account of all. Every chapter
is a bewitching gem, and Franklin lives and breathes on every page.

This is the last book in Catherine Drinker Bowen's brilliant career. With this, she did not intend to
write a full narrative biography. Instead she proposed to write "only what interested me about this
most consistently entertaining biographical subject." Thus the book focuses on specific scenes
in Franklin's colorful life, including his youthful discoveries with electricity, activity in the Albany
Congress of 1754, nine years in London and, of course, his part in America's revolutionary plans.
