- fuzztester 2y agoWelcome. If you liked that, you must read the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, if not already read. He was a polymath: a businessman, a scientist, a diplomat, and much more. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Autobiography_of_Benjamin_Franklin https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Autobiography_of_Benjami... >The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin appears to have called the work his Memoirs. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin's death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin >Benjamin Franklin FRS FRSA FRSE (January 17, 1706 [O.S. January 6, 1705][Note 1] – April 17, 1790) was an American polymath: a leading writer, scientist, inventor, statesman, diplomat, printer, publisher, and political philosopher.[1] Among the most influential intellectuals of his time, Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States; a drafter and signer of the Declaration of Independence; and the first postmaster general.[2]
