>> Tough Read
I LOVE history but the way they spoke/wrote back then make this a really tough read
>> Very interesting but superlative
I had heard grandiose things about this book as in one of the greatest autobiographies in existence etc Well I read it and it was good But I wonder how great people would say it was were it not for the historical color it adds to the landscape I mean the writing skill is fine in my opinion not great As a few other reviewers have said it also falls far short of being definitive It s almost like Franklin thought Let me write a skeletal account for an autobiography then I ll fill in all the details and put meat on them bones But he never seemed to get around to adding the meat
So okay I liked the book but it didn t appear to me to be one of the best ever I believe Franklin was a much greater man than we see portrayed here
>> Nice
The book arrived quickly and in perfect condition VERY pleased with everything including the price
