As the title states, this is a small work based on the thirteen virtues as listed by Benjamin Franklin, which include Alertness, Silence, Order, Resolution, Conversation, Industry, Sinserity, Justice, Moderation, Health, Clamness, Friendship and Modesty. The author has used quotes from famous and well known (and some not so well known) folks such as Mark Twain to discuss and emphasize each of these virtues long with comments by himself. There are many words of wisdom here, wisdome we should all at least be aware of, if indeed, we may not practice. Some of these sayings and comments are quite amusing, while others quite serious. This is a great little book to have laying around to pick up and just give a quick read from page to page when you have a few moments. It should probably be in every dental office in town. Recommend this one highly.
