"Franklin was a politician whose civic actions benefitted every fellow citizen of every belief, every creed, and every political opinion. He tried to integrate the diversity of Americans by means of a shared understanding of the world with a scientific approach to natural phenomena, education and equality-not, as before, only by listening to the commandments of priests. These human and civic virtues of America 200 years ago are like those Kozietulski charged us with. Wise parables apply in any era. They can be useful today to readers along the Vistula River just as they were once useful to farmers on the Susquehanna. Even more, in this book Franklin's great wisdom is delivered with great humor that's why I recommend it."- Michal Kaminski - politician, deputy speaker of the Polish senate.
