Zusammenfassung: | "For more than one-fifth of his life, Benjamin Franklin lived in London. He dined with prime ministers, members of parliament, even kings, as well as with Britain's most esteemed intellectuals--including David Hume, Joseph Priestley, and Erasmus Darwin--and with more notorious individuals, such as Francis Dashwood and James Boswell. Having spent eighteen formative months in England as a young man, Franklin returned in 1757 as a colonial representative during the Seven Years' War, and left abruptly just prior to the outbreak of America's War of Independence, barely escaping his impending arrest. In this fascinating history, George Goodwin gives a colorful account of Franklin's British years. The author offers a rich and revealing portrait of one of the most remarkable figures in U.S. history, effectively disputing the commonly held perception of Franklin as an outsider in British politics. It is an enthralling study of an American patriot who was a fiercely loyal British citizen for most of his life--until forces he had sought and failed to control finally made him a reluctant revolutionary at the age of sixty-nine"--Publisher's description |

"For more than one-fifth of his life, Benjamin Franklin lived in London. He dined with prime ministers, members of parliament, even kings, as well as with Britain's most esteemed intellectuals--including David Hume, Joseph Priestley, and Erasmus Darwin--and with more notorious individuals, such as Francis Dashwood and James Boswell. Having spent eighteen formative months in England as a young man, Franklin returned in 1757 as a colonial representative during the Seven Years' War, and left abruptly just prior to the outbreak of America's War of Independence, barely escaping his impending arrest. In this fascinating history, George Goodwin gives a colorful account of Franklin's British years. The author offers a rich and revealing portrait of one of the most remarkable figures in U.S. history, effectively disputing the commonly held perception of Franklin as an outsider in British politics. It is an enthralling study of an American patriot who was a fiercely loyal British citizen for most of his life--until forces he had sought and failed to control finally made him a reluctant revolutionary at the age of sixty-nine"--Publisher's description 1706-1724 : life before London -- 1724-1726 : a young man in London -- 1726-c.1748 : foundations -- c.1748-1757 : conductor -- 1757 : return to London -- 1757-1758 : a London life -- 1758 onwards : Benjamin Franklin's British family -- 1758-1762 : moves and countermoves -- 1762-1764 : intermission -- 1764-1766 : the stamp act -- 1766-1770 : pivotal years -- Home comforts and discomforts -- 1770-c.1771 : seeking balance -- 1771-1772 : movements -- 1772-1774 : drawn to the cockpit -- 1774-1775 : the last year in London -- Aftermath: 'a little revenge'.
