Rediscovering America: Benjamin Franklin and the American Dream

by Brian W. Fairbanks

If Benjamin Franklin was "The Pattern American," how has his model for success inspired others, particularly those outside the mainstream like James Baldwin, an African-American writer, and Scott Peck, a gay teenager? REDISCOVERING AMERICA looks at these and other notable figures to see who embodies and who betrays Franklin's vision and the spirit of America.
