To: Brian Griffin
“Much of Franklin’s writing on the topic can be found in the Franklin Collection at Yale University, considered the most extensive archive of material by and about this Founding Father. Since 1976, NEH has funded the editing and publication of that massive effort, which is estimated to reach 47 volumes upon completion. Those documents have slowly been digitized and many are now accessible via an online database.”
“’the Pamphlet War marked a new development in early American print culture, where satire, political propaganda, and fake news shaped debate and opinion.’”
