Як я опинився на ста доларах

Benjamin Franklin is one of the founding fathers and a national hero of the USA, the ideologist of the American Revolution. He was also a publisher, inventor, politician, and philanthropist.

As an inventor, he is responsible for developing a lightning rod, a smokeless stove, and bifocal glasses; in addition, he was the first to use an electric spark for gunpowder explosion and received a patent for a rocking chair. As a politician, the US owes him the federal model of the national government and the combination of balance of power politics with idealism in the international arena.

The autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is a work that perfectly demonstrates how one man was able to combine the abilities of outstanding achievements in so many areas.
