Benjamin Franklin, Politician pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
This is a portrait of one of the founding fathers in American colonial history, Benjamin Franklin. Seeking to uncover details of his life omitted from his autobiography, this book presents him as a man of genius and enormous ego. He never flaunted his superiority, but permitted others to advance it. In order to understand the politician and his role in great events, award-winning author Jennings stresses the omnipresence of this ego, and the extent to which Franklin mirrored the feelings of other colonial Pennsylvanians. The book also investigates Franklin's struggle against Thomas Penn (entirely omitted from his autobiography), feudal lordship and the government of George III. The book seeks to provide an accurate account of Franklin's life and work, so that the reader may understand the meaning of the term "First American".
