Book excerpt: Writer, Statesman, World-traveler, Publisher, Inventor, Philosopher, Printer, Diplomat, Newspaper editor, Scientist, Satirist, Pamphleteer, Social critic. Of all Americas illustrious Founding Fathers, Benjamin Franklin was the one who most readily wore the mantle of the Renaissance Man. His interests were remarkably eclectic, and his talents extraordinarily diverse. A signer of the Declaration of Independence, a founder of the subscription library system, inventor of bifocal eyeglasses and the lightning rod, and an originator of the city of Philadelphias first fire department. Franklin might have gone on to a distinguished career in any of the disciplines for which he showed enthusiasm. Today, we remember him as a writer of some of the wittiest and most stimulating essays and articles published during our nations Colonial era, all informed by his boundless intellectual curiosity and open-minded spirit of inquiry.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benjamin Franklin, a true American patriot, was known throughout the world for his many accomplishments. In his personal life, he was a husband, father, and friend to many. And in his public life, he was a printer, inventor, scientist, educator, and ambassador, to name but a few. Perhaps his crowning achievement to modern civilization was his contribution to the Constitutional Convention in 1787. It was here that Franklin's prophetic-like vision allowed him to foresee the forces that would jeopardize our liberty, and more importantly, to lay out a plan that would help its future generation of citizens reclaim America. It was General George Washington who presided over the assembly at the Constitutional Convention, and it is said that while "the last members were signing, Dr. Franklin, looking towards the president's chair, at the back of which a rising sun happened to be painted, observed to a few members near him that painters had found it difficult to distinguish in their art a rising from a setting sun. 'I have, ' said he, 'often... looked at that behind the president without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting; but now at length I have the happiness to know that it is a rising, and not a setting sun.'" The first book to be released in this all new Benjamin Franklin trilogy series includes Franklin's autobiography and selected writings. This comprehensive series has been compiled in an all new larger, easy-to-read format, complete with original illustrations. The book measures a full 7.50" x 9.25" compared to similar books on the life of Franklin which are smaller in size and measure only 4" x 7."

Book excerpt: Meet Benjamin Franklin as you’ve never met him before . . . This hilarious collection includes the Founding Father’s satirical writings on farting, adultery, and other irreverent subjects you won’t find in your history books. A mention of flatulence might conjure up images of bratty high school boys or lowbrow comics. But one of the most eloquent—and least expected—commentators on the subject is Benjamin Franklin. The writings in Fart Proudly reveal the rogue who lived peaceably within the philosopher and statesman. Included are “The Letter to a Royal Academy”; “On Choosing a Mistress”; “Rules on Making Oneself Disagreeable”; and other jibes. Franklin’s irrepressible wit found an outlet in perpetrating hoaxes, attacking marriage and other sacred cows, and skewering the English Parliament. Reminding us of the humorous, irreverent side of this American icon, these essays endure as both hilarious satire and a timely reminder of the importance of a free press.
