Liberty! The American Revolution: Benjamin Franklin

Curated by ACT

Watch two short video clips about Benjamin Franklin, which were produced for a PBS documentary that chronicles key events and figures in America's struggle for independence. One clip briefly explains why the French were so fascinated by Franklin; the other, in which Franklin belittles George III, provides a taste of his characteristic wit.
