About this book

"Vie de Benjamin Franklin, écrite par lui-même - Tome 1" by Benjamin Franklin is an autobiography written between 1771 and 1790. Franklin recounts his journey from childhood through age 52, addressing his son while describing his family origins, apprenticeship disputes with his brother, and eventual establishment as a printer in Philadelphia. He chronicles his marriage, founding of the Library Company, and famous pursuit of moral perfection through thirteen virtues. Left unfinished at his death, this candid self-portrait became one of history's most influential autobiographies.
