Remembering the last listening position Because audio books are most of the time quite large files, it's unlikely that you listen to them in one piece. Your iPod remembers the position where you stopped listening the last time. So when you continue listening to your audio book, maybe days later, you don't have to waste time finding the right position to start. This even works, if you are listening to music or other audio books in the meantime. Adjusting the reading speed You can adjust the reading speed to your personal preferences. These features are only available for audio books in the iPod format but not for MP3 files. Please refer to your iPod documentation for more information on how to use these features

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin
Written by
Benjamin Franklin
Edited by Frank Woodworth Pine
Franklin wrote his autobiography in the form of an extended letter to his son. While recording the events of his life, he adds instructions for good living which makes this work America’s first “How to Succeed” book. Summary by the Gary READ BY GAR GILBERD "IF YOU NOT BE FORGOTTON, AS SOON AS YOU ARE DEAD & ROTTON, EITHER WRITE THINGS WORTH READING, OR DO THE THINGS WORTH WRITING"
America has never forgotten Benjamin Franklin because he did both. He lived these words of wisdom by writing as much as he possibly could and by doing even more. He became famous for being a scientist, an inventor, a statesman, a printer, a philosopher, a musician, and an economist.
