In this authoritative and engrossing full-scale biography, Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of Einstein and Steve Jobs, shows how the most fascinating of America's founders helped define our national character. Benjamin Franklin is the founding father who winks at us, the one who seems made of flesh rather than marble. In a sweeping narrative that follows Franklin's life from Boston to Philadelphia to London and Paris and back, Walter Isaacson chronicles the adventures of the runaway apprentice who became, over the course of his eighty-four-year life, America's best writer, inventor, media baron, scientist, diplomat, and business strategist, as well as one of its most practical and ingenious political leaders. He explores the wit behind Poor Richard's Almanac and the wisdom behind the Declaration of Independence, the new nation's alliance with France, the treaty that ended the Revolution, and the compromises that created a near-perfect Constitution. In this colorful and intimate narrative, Isaacson provides the full sweep of Franklin's amazing life, showing how he helped to forge the American national identity and why he has a particular resonance in the twenty-first century.Binding Type: Paperback

Decent
Color: Dark Brown, Size: 15.7", Color: Dark Brown, Size: 15.7"
Instructions aren’t very clear. Takes a bit to figure out. Pretty cheap quality, but seems to be sturdy. The metal basket part of ours came rather bent and had to do some bending to get it to fit right. Decent size could be little thicker. They look good though once up.

Works well
Size: 6.5 FT, Color: Black
This thing was a life saver. It has plenty of plug ports for the price and it's not huge. The footprint is a bit bigger than some others but it's not bulky. Seems well built and the fact that I can power all my electronics and still have the USB ports to charge my phone and things is nice.

Good quality surge protector.
Size: 6.5 FT, Color: Black
It's great to have a search protector that has this much versatility. One of the spots that this is mostly needed is around the TV area. With the need to plug in TVs, DVD players, surround sound theater system equipment, Xbox and PS5's, wifi router etc. This thing has more than enough plug spaces then you can throw it at a single time. The east of having all these connecting ports available in one compact place is a big win. It also eliminates running unnecessary wires being that old the plugs you need to plug in will have it available socket. This search protector also has a very premium feel due to quality materials.
Another great feature that it has is that you can hang it or drill it to a wall due in large part to its available pre drilled holes.
Also the way that the sockets are aligned are perfect to plug different types of plugs with enough space in between. There is enough separation to make different types of plugs fit snuggly.
