A brilliant resource to the wise and witty sayings of the "first American", along with numerous entertaining anecdotes about Benjamin Franklin's adventures and misadventures, from his childhood in his brother's Boston printing establishment and his subsequent move to Philadelphia as a youth to his stint as Colonial postmaster general, his work with Thomas Jefferson on the Declaration of Independence, and his years as ambassador to the court of Louis XVI in France. This book is for speechmakers, students of history, and lovers of Americana. The Wit & Wisdom of Benjamin Franklin contains quotations organized by subject; lists of his inventions and innovations, such as newspaper editorials, the Franklin stove, bifocals, daylight saving time, and electroshock treatment; and his insights into the personalities of his contemporaries.

As a bestselling author and our nation's earliest spokesman, Benjamin Franklin brilliantly extolled virtues of temperance, industry, and self-reliance --character traits which throughout our history have been celebrated as both personally liberating and quintessentially American. In this next installment of the highly successful Bite-Size series, Bite-Size Franklin draws some practical wisdom, and more than a few laughs, from Franklin's intimate letters, scientific essays, newspaper articles, and revolutionary writings, as well as from the pages of career advice, aphorisms, and humorous verse he weaved together in his Autobiography, and in his yearly publication Poor Richard's Almanac.
