Thursday Book Review: Ben Franklin

Published on by Zents Music StudioLeave a comment
The signature of Benjamin Franklin is on The Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Treaty of Paris that ended the Revolutionary War with Great Britain

I just read a book on Benjamin Franklin, the statesman & inventor whose face is on the American 100 dollar bill.

It was a short little book produced by kappabooks.com, yet it was considerably informative.

B.F was a very wise & witty man

Some look at Mr. Franklin as a natural-born genius, and so do I!

“If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are rotten, either write things worth reading or do things worth the writing.”
Ben Franklin was a gentleman who practiced what he preached.

I recently watched a Ken Burns documentary on Ben Franklin. It was very good.

Born in 1706, Benjamin Franklin is still worth reading about, and if you travel to Philadelphia, you’ll find the Franklin Court and the Benjamin Franklin Museum.

These sites are part of Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

A penny saved is a penny earned!
However, these days people throw pennies on Franklin’s grave!
