“If you would not be forgotten

As soon as you are dead and rotten,

Either write things worth reading,

Or do things worth the writing.”

– Benjamin Franklin, “Poor Richard’s Almanac”

Benjamin Franklin is unquestionable one of the most iconic figures in early American history. From his political influence to his contributions to scientific knowledge, Benjamin Franklin will always be known as a foundational figure to the United States. Author O.L. Holley published an account of the life, works, politics, and scientific studies of Franklin. Like many works on Franklin, this book covers his study in electricity, involvement in the Stamp Act, the Poor Richard’s Almanac, travels to France, and much, much more.
