Read full description of the books:
The Wit and Wisdom of Benjamin Franklin was erratic at best. Tidbits taken from Franklin's "Poor Richard's Almanac" are splattered throughout the book and they range from enlightening snippets such as:
"He's a fool that cannot conceal his wisdom."
to mundane sayings bordering on obtuse such as:
"If your head is wax, don't walk in the sun."
Overall this has some interesting thoughts I found amusing but didn't think it was worth the read in the end. What it did do for me was make me want to read Poor Richard's Almanac. If you're considering picking this up to get a feel for Franklin, don't bother. Just skip to the real thing.
