He was well-liked, outgoing, famously flirtatious even in his old age, yet among the most intellectual men of his age and seemingly able to succeed in whatever endeavor into which he entered.īenjamin Franklin: An American Life is one of the more consequential of the dozens of biographies of the man to appear in the last few decades. Perhaps this is because Franklin was perpetually curious and disarmingly candid, never hiding from himself or his posterity his passions or his indiscretions. Despite his place in our pantheon of national heroes, Franklin uniquely seems to be remembered as an approachable man-the one who more than any other could strike up conversation with someone today and even find himself at home with modern society.
