About This Item
Dr. Franklin, an inventor of many things, counted the glass harmonica among his achievements. When he found out through the Spanish Ambassador to France that the King of Spain wanted one for the youngest prince, Franklin supplied it. And thus began the story of Franklin, the Spanish Crown, and the surreptitious financing of parts of the American Revolution, a story which is just now coming to light, after all these years, to be told by Dr. Chavez more fully in the near future.
A magnificent addition to the fine work of the Palace Press. It is in fine, as new condition, in the publisher's custom box.
