Benjamin Franklin's "The Way To Wealth" signifies the change from the "puritan plain" writing style to the "protestant work ethic" style. In fact, it wasn't just the writing style that changed, it was American values, traditions, nationalism, and culture that changed during this time as well. The popularity of The Way To Wealth showed that more and more Americans were concerned with higher levels of intellectual knowledge, than they did for futile religious dogma and rhetoric. Furthermore, Americans weren't so in love with being a colony of the British Empire, so this area in time also represented a gradual change in the American value of British nationalism, to American nationalism. Therefore, besides the fact that Americans were switching from the puritan faith to the protestant doctrine, they were also beginning to change their values in regards to education and British nationalism. The reason being, they no longer wanted education for the rich, but they wanted it for everyone and they weren't fond of being taxed like crazy by Great Britain.

Example Paragraph -
I woke from my irreproachable idleness of sleep to the ring of my cell. At the absurd time of 1 am, I drowsily, picked up the phone, answering with a dull "Hello". A panicked and angry storekeeper yelled into my ear, reporting a robbery at his shop in the centre of Brocklevin, only a block away from my flat. We exchanged words as I quickly dressed. "I'll be there shortly," I assured the anxious storekeeper before hanging up and brisk;y wandering into the night, flashlight in hand. In just two minutes I had arrived. Carefully I stepped into the scene of the crime. The thief had done the crime in a rush, yet left no conspicuous clues to their identity at the crime scene. I kicked the several knocked over cans, searching for any evidence. As I walked about, there was no doubt in my mind that the criminal was forming another sinister scheme, waiting for the perfect opportunity to bounce back into action. Frustrated, I paced around the shards of broken glass. I tried to think like the thief, slinking into the ominous darkness of the ally. After what seemed like an hour of futile searching, I found something valuable. A small salmon-coloured pouch about the size of a wallet. Excited, I opened it with furious enthusiasm. Inside was a hoard of small objects and a single yellow rose.
