Summary
Attempts to unearth the historic Benjamin Franklin from the images that have accumulated since the publication of his "Autobiography" in 1794, presenting him as the most benevolent and philanthropic of the Founders, unconcerned with the accumulation of wealth, conflicted over his place in the world, and a latecomer to the idea of American freedom
