How curious that Franklin's son, sired a child out of wedlock and essentially followed in his father's footsteps. Great idea this author had, to take well known characters and explore this aspect. ( ) Very good historical fiction. Kept my interest from the very first page and I could not put it down. At the end of the book the author explains the details of his research and how mnuch of the book was fact and how much was fiction. Also goes into detail about the final years of Benjamin Franklin after the book finishes. i received this book on Goodreads. I wrote a review there. Bottom line: it's okay as a novel, but the history part is not very good. http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/968945744?book_show_action=false sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
