Reviews
The New Yorker Energetic, entertaining, and worldly.
The New York Times Book Review A thoroughly researched, crisply written, convincingly argued chronicle.
The Washington Post Book World The most readable full-length Franklin biography available.
The New York Times In its common sense, clarity and accessibility, it is a fitting reflection of Franklin's sly pragmatism....This may be the book that most powerfully drives a new pendulum swing of the Franklin reputation.
