Benjamin Franklin, página 2 de 4

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin (1771-1790) is the name given to the unfinished autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, one of the most influential founding fathers of the United States of America. Unpublished during his lifetime, the first edition of 1791 was in French and based on an imperfect transcription. Franklins grandson then published the book in English in 1818, but not only did he miss a portion, but he also made revisions to his grandfathers work. Finally, in 1868, John Bigelow acquired the original manuscript and published the first accurate version, on which this edition is based. Throughout his life, Franklin was not only a politician, but also a printer, scientist and inventor.

In this inspiring autobiography, Benjamin Franklin not only recounts a significant portion of his beautiful and successful life but also shares his personal formula for success. Franklin advocated sacrifice, hard work, thrift, frugality, and continuous education as determinants for individual and collective prosperity. Franklins basic idea that, no matter who you are, with hard work and thrift, you can achieve prosperity and greatness fully embodies the "American dream." For all those involved in business development or collective projects, reading this ebook is highly recommended. Franklin tells us how he created and encouraged numerous enterprises in his city, Philadelphia, in the then colony of Pennsylvania, and in his country. Just to name a few of the enterprises initiated by him: the first library, the first book club, the first militia, the first hospital in Philadelphia, and often in the United States. Franklin was the epitome of an honest, upright, and competent entrepreneur in both public administration and in the private management of his printing press and newspaper. Benjamin Franklin will forever be a great example of a citizen, entrepreneur, and public figure.

En 1732, Franklin comenzó a publicar El Almanaque del Pobre Richard, en el cual construyó una imagen basada en la ideología del pueblo estadounidense sobre máximas como "un centavo ahorrado es un centavo ganado", entre otras que se han vuelto inmemoriales. El ensayo El Camino hacia la Riqueza se publico en ese almanaque, causando gran furor en la epoca, y se hizo legendario.En este pequeño libro, nos planteamos sumar otros cuatro ensayos de Benjamin Franklin, por la grandiosidad de su filosofia, humor y belleza argumentativa.En sus Observaciones sobre los salvajes de Norteamerica, Franklin nos enseña sobre la igualdad entre todos los seres humanos; en Nosotros somos espiritus, nos trae su vision sobre la muerte, en un escrito construido bajo la forma de carta dedicada a una persona en luto; en su El arte de buscar sueños placenteros, muestra un lado ingenioso, enseñando algo fundamental a la salud: dormir bien; finalmente, como si cerrara un ciclo, termina con Consejo a un joven empresario, donde tambien escribe sus ideas en forma de carta, esta vez adquiriendo la voz de uno experimentado a un joven principiante. Este ultimo ensayo viene a complementar el primero.

Benjamin Franklins writings have inspired millions throughout the years, and his advice on how to earn and save money is timeless. "The Way to Wealth" was an essay written by Benjamin Franklin in 1758. He was on a journey to England and resented the time wasted waiting for the ship to sail (it was anchored in New York for 2 weeks) that he began collecting adages and advice from 25 years worth of publication of Poor Richards Alamanac (Spelled Alamanack at the time). Because the poor man couldnt afford books, he would spend his earnings on yearly almanacs filled with astrology, jokes, stories, and other works of amusement. In Poor Richards Alamanac, Franklin copied some of the more popular pieces of advice, slightly modified, and also included original works of his own
