The dramatic biography of an American genius whose life spanned most of the 18th century, this three-part series follows Benjamin Franklin from his humble beginnings growing up in Boston, through his determined drive for prosperity and accomplishment as a self-made businessman, publisher and civic citizen in Philadelphia, to international superstardom as a scientist and revolutionary, a founding father and America's first diplomat.
Viewer Reviews This video was ordered because of my son's school project. We didn't think that we would actually enjoy it so much. The story was told so well, and presented a character that spoke as if Benjamin and an actress that represented his wife. You really got the feeling of knowing and loving Benjamin Franklin. I can't wait to watch it again and I hope that my other son will someday have to do the same project.
