About this book

This study of Benjamin Franklin comes from Paul Elmer More (1864-1937), the American critic and philosopher who, with Irving Babbitt, led the New Humanism movement against romantic and naturalist excess. More wrote the long series of Shelburne Essays and brought a severe moral standard to American letters. His Franklin weighs the founding sage's character and prose with the discriminating judgment that marked all his criticism.
