This is an unusual and fascinating biography of William Franklin, Benjamin Franklin's illegitimate son, who, with the onset of Independence, became a visible spokesman for the Loyalist cause.

A well-researched, nicely written, and a long-needed biography of Benjamin Franklin's son William....This book should be in every collegiate library and will prove worthwhile to all readers interested in the Tory position throughout the Revolutionary period. * Choice *
