Features: "The Autobiography" not only describes the life experiences of an admirable great man, but also reveals to me the image of Americans represented by Franklin, the ideals and values of Americans. This book tells the story of a person born into poverty, who ultimately achieved success through relentless self-improvement. "The Autobiography" is permeated with themes that repeatedly appear in later American literature: the realization of the American Dream. Franklin demonstrates in the book, through his personal experiences, that the New World of America is a land full of hope, where people's ideals and aspirations can be realized through individual efforts. Franklin is the one who best reflects the spirit of his time, and "The Autobiography" vividly records the customs and spirit of the era, embodying the ideals and values before and after the founding of the United States. His "The Autobiography" has left an immortal mark on the history of American literature.
