Finished this book last week or so , and since lent it to charlie. I didn`t think I like biographies but have now changed my mind. Granted this is an autobiography , that is actually written by the author in his own words. Benjamin Franklin is a wonderful writer.
Anyway , some of the reasons I lent it to charlie , is that BF loved to discuss and dispute various intellectual topics , science , poetry , politics etc; and was hoping it would inspire Charlie and I to get some discussions going on the message board again. Reading a topic , and thinking about it critically is one way to learn. But to discuss it , air it out , listen to differences of opinions ,
articulating critical thoughts , that is learning.
Anyway , some more of my thought on Benjamin Franklin on the Kasual Kafe History Page
