Reviews
On Oct 20 2021, a reader said:
This book is an amazing collection of insightful sayings by Ben. Many if not all were published in Poor Richard's Almanac. This book gives the reader a window into Ben's extensive wisdom and also gives insight into the times in which he lived and what their thoughts were on a variety of things. Great book to help make this Founding Father more real.
