Depicting Franklin as a controversial figure in his own time, this volume includes political, economic, and social pieces, scientific articles, opinions on education and religion, propaganda exercises drawn from `Silence Dogwood,` writings from the `Pennsylvania Gazette,` and `Poor Richard`s Almanack,` and letters.
The Library of America has produced a witty contribution to the celebration of its own fifth anniversary and the anniversary of the United States Constitution. Included are authoritative versions of Franklin`s best-known writings (e.g., The Autobiography ), as well as 57 new attributions. Also included are all prefaces and maxims from the full run of Poor Richard`s Almanack , plus a generous and prudent selection of other writings, both personal and public. The material is arranged by the eras of Franklin`s long life. Lemay`s erudite notes, an excellent index, and the volume`s acid-free paper all attest to admirable publishing standards. For most libraries.

Ima inventarski pečat, inače odlično očuvano.
