    About this audiobook

    "From the poverty and obscurity in which I was born I have raised myself up." In his own words Benjamin Franklin steps off the pages of history, brimming with candor, bright ideas, and common sense, and with something of an eye for the ladies.

      I thought it was ok, opened my eyes to the interesting times of this great american. But felt is lacked something. I recommend listening to get to know this great man. Interesting stories on this audio book for sure.
