Born to Boston Puritans, by his teenage years Franklin had abandoned the exclusive Christian faith of his family and embraced deism. But Franklin, as a man of faith, was far more complex than the "e;thorough deist"e; who emerges in his autobiography. As Thomas Kidd reveals, deist writers influenced Franklin´s beliefs, to be sure, but devout Christians in his life-including George Whitefield, the era´s greatest evangelical preacher; his parents; and his beloved sister Jane-kept him tethered to the Calvinist creed of his Puritan upbringing. Based on rigorous research into Franklin´s voluminous correspondence, essays, and almanacs, this fresh assessment of a well-known figure unpacks the contradictions and conundrums faith presented in Franklin´s life.
