✝️ Catholic Star-Rated Critique ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4.6/5) William Cabell Bruce continues his deep psychological and moral portrait of Benjamin Franklin — not as a saint or a schemer, but as a complex man of intellect and appetite. This second volume reveals the later stages of Franklin’s life: the statesman, the diplomat, the philosopher who sought virtue through reason rather than revelation. From a Catholic lens, Franklin’s moral pragmatism can feel incomplete — lacking the divine anchor of grace — yet his lifelong pursuit of virtue, charity, and truth commands admiration. Bruce’s balanced prose reminds the Christian listener that wisdom can illuminate even outside explicit faith, and that the natural virtues, when rightly ordered, prepare the soil for divine ones. Highlights: Masterful biographical detail and moral insight. Candid look at Franklin’s flaws and faithlessness. Rich historical storytelling that invites reflection on conscience and grace.
