Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader; we have also provided you with a link to a website; where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades; and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated; an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago; it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality; blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work; others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However; our view is that this is a significant literary work; which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR); this approach has its own drawbacks; which include formatting errors; misspelt words; or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book; and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Thus much of what Benjamin Franklin; in his "Poor Richard" persona; published was in fact gleaned from earlier writers. Never mind that: these witticisms and pithy sayings are genuine Americana and well worth reading -- and owning. This inexpensive Dover edition is far from comprehensive; but what's in it is good.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. An old book for modern timesBy JmcenanlyIf many of the quotes in this almanac seem familiar; it is because they have been repeated often since Benjamin Franklin set them down. Many times ; he seems to be speaking directly to us about modern problems; both national and personal. If more people read and heeded these proverbs; we'd all be a lot better off.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The Sayings and Writings of a Great Man!By G. TownsendThis little book contains much wisdom. Benjamin Franklin was a treasure and a very impressive man. He is; indeed; remembered fondly as one of our greatest Founding Father!
