520 "Poor Richard's women describes Deborah's common-law
marriage to Ben Franklin and his romances with other
women"--|cProvided by publisher.
520 Benjamin Franklin: thrifty inventor, statesman of the
Revolutionary era... lover of women. The most prominent
among them was Deborah Read Franklin, his common-law wife
and partner for 44 years. An independent, politically
savvy woman and devoted wife, she raised their children,
managed his finances, and fought off angry mobs at
gunpoint while he traipsed about England. Stuart also
introduces us to Margaret Stevenson, the widowed landlady
who managed Ben's life in London; Catherine Ray, the New
Englander with whom he traveled overnight and later
exchanged passionate letters; Madame Brillon, the French
musician who flirted shamelessly with him, and the witty
Madame Helvetius, who befriended the philosophes of pre-
Revolutionary France and brought Ben to his knees. --
