The Story of Young Benjamin Franklin by Wayne Whipple is a biographical account of the early life of one of America's most famous founding fathers. The book details the trials and tribulations of a young Franklin as he navigates his way through his childhood, adolescence, and early adulthood. It covers his early education, his apprenticeship as a printer, his first forays into writing, and his eventual move to Philadelphia, where he would establish himself as a successful businessman and community leader. The book also explores Franklin's many inventions and scientific discoveries, including his experiments with electricity, his development of the bifocal lens, and his work on the Franklin stove. Throughout the book, Whipple paints a vivid picture of Franklin's world, providing readers with a rich and engaging portrait of a man who played a crucial role in the founding of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
