About this listen

Left unfinished at the time of his death, The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin has endured as one of the most well-known and influential autobiographies ever written. From his early years in Boston and Philadelphia to the publication of his Poor Richard's Almanac to the American Revolution and beyond, Franklin's autobiography is a fascinating, personal exploration into the life of America's most interesting founding father.

I was really interested to know more about B Franklin which I first got a glimpse about from the 18 most productive people in history so I got hold of his Autobiography which is my 1st. There was some uninteresting parts throughout though there was a fair amount I did like.
It was interesting to listen to the wording of that era by the man himself though some of the details he recorded weren't interesting to me. This one didn't have any of the rave reviews like the biography but, still wanted to hear it in what tongue was used of that time and some parts I was very engaged in and even repeated some parts just to grasp it better.
I like the narrator especially how different voices were sparingly used to separate from B. Franklin.
Overall I enjoyed the listen.
