Benjamin Franklin – History
Benjamin Franklin was not a man prone to leaving things well enough alone. Nary a day goes by where you don’t encounter something that he has influenced. There are books and books written on his life. There are books written on just facets of his life. Carriers and lifetimes are spent studying his life and influence. So I demure from embarrassing myself in front of the many Franklin-philes, and will refer you to this Wikipedia entry – just to get you started. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Franklin Pens made from the Benjamin Franklin Holly here.
