This book was pretty good, but it wasn't amazing.

Well written and contains a ton of details about his life - his scientific discoveries, inventions, diplomatic work, and family relationships. A perfect biography for middle elementary school levels!

Not a bad read on my favorite forefather, old Benjy, and it actually included a little information that was new to me.
