Wood; Author Dedication; Preface; Acknowledgments; List of Illustrations; Introduction; Notes; Index and About the Author. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "In this absorbing narrative, one of our premier American historians has captured the extraordinary interaction of a rising American people and the man who rose with them, shaping their aspirations as they shaped his." - Edmund Morgan, author. "In this brilliantly iconoclastic and utterly convincing reappraisal, Gordon Wood has shattered forever the comforting stereotyple of Benjamin Franklin as the plainspoken, homespun American patriot, the cracker-barrel philosopher who dispensed dry quips and always exemplified middle-class values and democratic virtues. Here we see Franklin as a controversial work in progress - a striving self-made printer who craved aristocratic respectability, a passionate British royalist who preferred upper-crust European society, and a belated convert to the Revolutionary cause, which he served with such spectacular distinction. With great psychological acuity and unrivaled erudition, Wood has rescued the real Franklin from the crushing heap of retrospective myths that have too long obscured the deep logic of his personal and political metamorphosis." - Ron Chernow, author. "From "the preeminent historian of the Revolution" (Jonathan Yardley), a groundbreaking study, years in the making, of Benjamin Franklin the man, Benjamin Franklin the myth, and the roots of American character. Central to America's idea of itself is the character of Benjamin Franklin. We all know him, or think we do: in recent works and in our inherited conventional wisdom, he remains fixed in place as a genial polymath and self-improver who was so very American that he is know by us all as "the first American." The problem with this beloved notion of Franklin's quintessential American-ness, as Gordon Wood shows us in this marvelous, revelatory book, is that it's simply not true. And it's so embedded in our mind's eye that it blinds us to the no less admirable or important, but far more interesting, man that Franklin really was and leaves us powerless to make sense of some of the most crucial events of his life: his preoccupation with becoming a gentleman, his longtime loyalty to the Crown and burning ambition to be a player in the British Empire's power structure, the personal character of his conversion to revolutionary, his reasons for writing the Autobiography, his controversies with John and Samuel Adams and with Congress, his love of Europe and conflcted sense of national identity, and the fact that his death was greeted by mass mourning in France but widely ignored in America. Gordon Wood argues that Benjamin Franklin did become the Revolution's necessary man, second behind George Washington. But then why was his importance so denigrated in his own lifetime, and why has his image been so distorted since? The Americanization of Benjamin Franklin is a landmark work, a magnificent fresh vision of Franklin's life and reputation, filled with profound insights into the Revolution and into the emergence of America's idea of itself." - from the inner front jacket flap. Quinn, Marysarah (book design); Gaffney, Evan (jacket design); Duplessis, Joseph Siffred (jacket art) (illustrator).…
