Ben Franklin and I are back for another encounter about his indiscretions in my book, POOR RICHARD'S WOMEN.

July 4th is celebrated for the signing of the Declaration of Independence but that's not quite true. The writers Adams, Jefferson and editor Franklin signed it in July but it wasn't until August 2 that it arrived in other colonies for other delegates to sign.
History buffs started the Paoli Battlefield Preservation Fund in Malvern, Pennsylvania in 1998, the site of an important Revolutionary battle. On Monday, June 13 at 7:00 pm I will present virtually on POOR RICHARD’S WOMEN.
