Gran Sleep History

He was the only Founding Father who signed all four key documents that created the United States: the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Alliance with France, the Treaty of Paris, and the Constitution. But Benjamin Franklin was more than a politician. He was a printer, a scientist who tamed lightning, and an inventor whose creations—from bifocals to the Franklin stove—still shape our world. He founded America's first lending library and its first volunteer fire department. At 70, he helped draft the Declaration. At 81, he shaped the Constitution. This is the story of "The First American," the man who proved that a self-made citizen could build a nation.
