Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

A New York Times Book Review Best Book Since 2000 A New York Times Bestseller, a2003 National Book Critics Circle Award finalist, and aWashington Post Book World, Publishers Weekly, and Los Angeles Times Book Review Best Book of the Year Superb. . . . The best short biography of Franklin ever written.Gordon Wood, New York Review of Books None rivals Morgans study for its grasp of Franklins character.Joseph J. Ellis, London Review of Books Benjamin Franklin is perhaps the most remarkable figure in American history: the greatest statesman of his age, he played a pivotal role in the formation of the American republic. He was also a pioneering scientist, a bestselling author, the countrys first postmaster general, a printer, a bon vivant, a diplomat, a ladies man, and a moralistand the most prominent celebrity of the eighteenth century. Franklin was, however, a man of vast contradictions, as Edmund Morgan demonstrates in this brilliant biography. A reluctant revolutionary, Franklin had desperately wished to preserve the British Empire, and he mourned the break even as he led the fight for American independence. Despite his passion for science, Franklin viewed his groundbreaking experiments as secondary to his civic duties. And although he helped to draft both the Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution, he had personally hoped that the new American government would take a different shape. Unraveling the enigma of Franklins character, Morgan shows that he was the rare individual who consistently placed the public interest before his own desires. Written by one of our greatest historians and a Pulitzer Prize winner, Benjamin Franklin offers a provocative portrait of Americas most extraordinary patriot. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
