Author

Benjamin Franklin

It is difficult to overstate the many accomplishments Benjamin Franklin achieved in his long and storied life. He was, among many other things, a statesman, writer, printer, inventor, humorist, publisher, scientist, postmaster, an American diplomat and, of course, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Franklin was in poor health when he attended the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and this speech, delivered on the final day of the convention, would be one of his last public statements. He would die three years later.

    THE PAGAN MYTHOLOGY of ancient Greece and Rome versified, accompanied with Philosophical Elucidations of the probable latent meaning of some of the Fables of the Ancients, on a theory entirely new. By R. ATKINS. Illustrated by twenty-two Cuts on Wood.
