A biography is an account of the life and affairs of a person. Walter Issacson wrote a biography of Benjamin in which recounted several aspects of his life.
For example, he made the statement, "Some who see the selection of Franklin in the world today fret about a shallowness of soul and a spiritual complacency that seem to permeate a culture of materialism."
This statement shows that the writer was recounting the style and ways of Benjamin Franklin and how the American public viewed him.
Thus, we can deduce that the passage is a biography of Benjamin Franklin that is meant for a general audience.

Secrets are one of the central themes in the book, although they are not the most prominent theme, they are quite important, as the ending of the book relies heavily on an untrue fact and untrue story, or rather a secret, which determines the fate of one of the characters. This quote (above in your question) particularly mirrors the quote " You never really know a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around it." Boo Radley remains a secret from the beginning of the book until the end and this quote relates to him as Scout and Jem try to figure him out, since he is so mysterious, yet another one of the secrets present in the novel.
