About this listen

 Ben Franklin's own lively story of his early years is a unique, fascinating, and influential look at this American founding father. It has been taught in schools as a moral tract, as a guide to self-improvement, and as the Great American Success Story. It also is relished both for its insight into colonial life and the mind of the man who most affected the development of our democratic form of government. Finally, it is savored for its language; Franklin's wit, his well-turned phrase, and his humanity shine through.(P)1997 The Audio Partners, Inc.

I started reading this book, from quotes and references to this one, from a few other books I have read during the time. The journey of BF to be the leader who he was, is detailed with instances and day to day experiences, encounters and challenges in this book. There is a bigger part of his journey to be the president ship untold in this book. The book is engaging with few good thoughts to take away and indeed an inspiring one.

Many historical events and thought processes showcased from Ben Franklin's perspective, some times manipulative.

Best part however is his method of overcoming his shortcomings and developing virtues..
