Franklin spent a good deal of time in France and was well-liked there. The Way to Wealth was his most popular work and though it first appeared in England in 1757 it was the French translation originally published in 1777 that first included his commentary on British taxation of the American colonies. Herein he presages the colonists' discontent with being taxed and ordered about by a foreign power. Marc-Michel Rey / Chez Ruault, Libraire unknown books
