About this book
Creators: Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) "Memoirs of Benjamin Franklin; Written by Himself. [Vol. 1 of 2]" by Benjamin Franklin is an autobiography written between 1771 and 1790. This unfinished account traces Franklin's journey from his Boston childhood through his rise as a Philadelphia printer and civic leader. Addressing his son William, Franklin recounts his self-education, early publishing ventures, and famous pursuit of moral perfection through thirteen virtues. The narrative ends in 1758 when Franklin was 52, leaving three decades of his remarkable life unrecorded—a testament to ambition, reinvention, and the American spirit.
