The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin

De: Benjamin Franklin

Narrado por: Qarie Marshall

Left unfinished at the time of his death, The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin has endured as one of the most well-known and influential autobiographies ever written. From his early years in Boston and Philadelphia to the publication of his Poor Richard's Almanac to the American Revolution and beyond, Franklin's autobiography is a fascinating, personal exploration into the life of America's most interesting founding father.

Non-Idol

I am not a history buff. I do not idol famous figures. But still his is a story with amazing insights about ourselves that is still relevant to today. A genius and clearly a strong inspiration for "How to Make Friends and Influence people" written over 100 years after his death. A must buy!!!

History from the source.

Thoughts from one of the founding fathers. Very educational listen on the life of a great man.

many words of wisdom, but language is very flowery

Franklin is truly an inspiration and lived an amazing life. That being said, there were more than a few passages made obtuse through his use of language. Therefore, I did not learn as much from it as I would have liked.

Good, as far as it goes

It is always good to hear things straight from the horse’s mouth, but in this case I was looking for more than humility allowed Mr Franklin to give.
Onward to a biography to fill in the gaps.

enjoyed The experiences and wisdom of B Franklin

he had a tremendous amount of impact and wisdom for the era in which he lived. many of his advices are prevalent in today and are needed

Excellent

This is SO wonderfully written, extremely interesting, and bursting with practical wisdom. I will reread it regularly.

Bio

Fascinating look into the life and times of Franklin. The narration was very well done.

Highly recommend

This audio book was read extremely well, taking in all the nuances of intonation required to get the proper meaning of Ben Franklin’s oftentimes verbose sentences, the meanings of which, once grasped, will endear you to his heart and intellect, integrity and wisdom.

All of it

Awesome book to read on audible. An autobiography that is a must read for all.

Amazing

It is absolutely amazing that this was one of our founding fathers.This powerful and unbelievably smart man shaped the course of the entire United States of America. He was constantly trying to better himself for the sake of the people around him. He recognized that he had faults and would try to continually transform them. Whenever I watched historical shows about Benjamin Franklin they never showed him so personable. I'm looking forward to reading many more books about our founding fathers. Thank you to the author and team that put this book together.
