Businesswoman, postmistress, mother of three, civic-minded citizen, and wife of Ben Franklin. Deborah Franklin was a MORE than capable founding mother. But our history books ignore or treat unkindly her contributions. She VERY MUCH wants to tell you her often neglected life story in Philadelphia during Colonial times. For many years at a stretch, she was often without her husband performing work for the family businesses. But it will take the cooperation of a young medium and the least of her direct descendants to do this. An honest,funny and warm historical retelling by a very capable founding mother not afraid to speak her mind at any moment.
