The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin was written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Memoirs.

Often labeled 'the world's first self-help book, ' founding father Benjamin Franklin's autobiography was never published in his lifetime but has since become a classic.

From "Poor Richard's Almanac" to letters to Jefferson and Adams, the words of the America's favorite Founding Father are edited and annotated in this delightful new reader.
