Like her brother, Jane Franklin was a passionate reader, a gifted writer, and an astonishingly shrewd political commentator. Unlike him, she was a mother of twelve. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBenjamin Franklin, who wrote more letters to his sister than he wrote to anyone else, was the original American self-made man; his sister spent her life caring for her children. They left very different traces behind. Making use of an amazing cache of little-studied material, including documents, objects, and portraits only just discovered, Jill Lepore brings Jane Franklin to life in a way that illuminates not only this one woman but an entire world--a world usually lost to history. Lepore's life of Jane Franklin, with its strikingly original vantage on her remarkable brother, is at once a wholly different account of the founding of the United States and one of the great untold stories of American history and letters: a life unknown.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf","offers":[{"title":"Book of Ages: The Life and Opinions of Jane Franklin | Jill Lepore | Hardcover | 9780307958341 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks R 1772349","offer_id":50752125337858,"sku":"1772349","price":21.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61CZ_KHjd5L.jpg?v=1792001802","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/book-of-ages-the-life-and-opinions-of-jane-franklin","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
