As a lover of science, even I sometimes find parts of the book to be a bit flat and academic (fun facts notwithstanding!).
But I’ve learned new things! On this page, for instance, I learned it was Franklin who helped Thomas Paine come to the colonies and even edited a draft of Common Sense. I’m also appreciating the decidedly *Newtonian* language in the Declaration of Independence.
