The Oxford Book of American Essays edition by Various Authors Benjamin Franklin Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
The book has no plot. It is a book of essays.
It's OK
Benjamin Frenklin is a great place to start if you want to know what kind of men combined an interest in science with an active social life when the United Ststes of America needed a constitution that could allow commerce to provide what Nietzsche in Daybreak called the major activity we expect to pass on to our children. Franklin bought a whistle when he was a kid, but he did not get the kind of deal that makes people count American eyeballs now. This book is deeper than a consumer survey. Maybe in spite of itself.
GOOD
This was a nice free selection
Since it's free, there's really no sense in *not* getting it. But what really makes this a good buy is the essay by Edgar Allan Poe detailing step-by-step how he wrote "The Raven". Get it just for that. The only other item that I thought really shined was an essay about a cat. I've never met a more interesting cat. I hate pets, but I had to read about the cat because the essay was just that good. So, yes, pick this up, but aside from what I've mentioned, don't expect too much from it.
I go to this book to help me with writing essays. would recommend it to other ppl.
