The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin

De: Benjamin Franklin

Narrado por: Fredd Wayne

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.

Outstanding narration

Would you consider the audio edition of The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin to be better than the print version?

Yes, because this narrator was so expressive as Ben that it was as if I was listening to the actual Benjamin Franklin telling me his story.

What Happened to the Balance if Franklin’s Life???

Very much interested in Franklin’ s life I listened carefully to the narrative. It stopped while Franklin was in England getting royal permission to tax the proprietors. Very unsatisfactory. :(

Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Interesting view into the life and thinking of Ben Franklin and pre-revolutionary America. remarkable man who shaped many events and was dedicated to a life of service and virtue.

Great summary of the life of a Great Man

A glimpse on the Life of one of the true founding fathers of USA and an incredible man for his time and an example for many generations to come on what can be achieved with Wit, solid moral values absorbed and practiced and also a great perseverance alied to a proficient exercice of his language and social cultivation skills 🙏❤

Great Work

Timeless words of wisdom written many years ago but still apply today. Unfortunately many of our leaders today lack BF integrity.

Wonderful history and interesting look at Franklin

My only complaint is where it ended, but apparently that is where Franklin stood writing. I found it fascinating to compare the first part, written when he was much younger, to the last. Ideology tempered by even more experience. We’ll worth the listen.

Narrator was great!

I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook. And the narrator was great. As if he was Ben Franklin telling is own story.

Surprisingly good.

Don’t know what I expected but I liked this book a lot.Ben tells a good story

Una bella pieza de literatura y sentido común

Un gran hombre, con una exquisita pluma, cuenta sus memorias. Se pueden sacar del relato grandes lecciones para la vida práctica. Ojalá muchos pudieran leer este libro. Sin embargo, para entender mejor la obra, sugiero un poco de estudio de la historia de EEUU del siglo XVII y XVIII.
