Benjamin Franklin's Autobiography

     Benjamin Franklin was the speaker in this piece of literature, because it was his own autobiography. The occasion was his life. He wanted to write all his achievements since he was seventeen years old. He has written thirteen guide lines, which he could follow and reach moral perfection. He made a schedule, everyday questioning himself if he had followed it or not. Some of these guide lines were talk only if important and don't waste your time on pointless things.
     The audience of his autobiography was all the readers that wanted to read and learn more about his life through his published books. He wanted to inform us about all his achievement and goals through his informative, descriptive, and practical tone. Benjamin Franklin did not have enough time to finish his own autobiography. He passed away not finishing it because he had many more other important jobs he had to complete such as helping to write the Constitution. He died at the age of eighty one which was a great age back at that time period.
