Translated into a dozen languages, printed in hundreds of editions, and read by millions of people, Franklin's autobiography has had an influence perhaps unequalled by any other book by an American writer. Written ostensibly as a letter to his son William, the autobiography offers Franklin's reflections on philosophy and religion, politics, war, education, material success and the status of women. This edition of the autobiography, prepared by the editors of "The Papers of Benjamin Franklin", is drawn with care from the original manuscript in Franklin's handwriting now in the Henry E. Huntington Library and Art Gallery. The introduction by Leonard Labaree places the autobiography in literary and historical contexts. In the foreword, Edmund Morgan writes about Franklin's dual allegiance as an American and a subject of an English king, and his emergence as a leader of the American Revolution. This edition also includes biographical notes, a chronology of Franklin's life, and an updated bibliography.

读过他的传记再读他的自传多多少少觉得有点搞笑

评分

文笔很好 老先生照片能上美元 果然及不平凡的 学习他的勤奋!可是也在质疑他过分功力的心理 看到后来情节变得很无聊。。里面的几大训诫倒是很好

评分

13条美德看起来简单,要践行一生绝非易事。自传写得也符合Benjamin的特点,精简不浮夸,不像现在垃圾商业书,其实精华不超过10页但硬生生写个200页。

14年暑假读。本书告诉我何为伟人。可惜以天朝的条件,开国元老们不足以写下他们的自传。
