The Rise of Alexander Hamilton (Part 1)

Alexander Hamilton was the greatest and most indispensable of the American founding fathers. (At least that's my contention). On this episode, I begin to describe what made him so great, I talk about his origins and education, and some of the habits and strategies he used to become one of America's leading men before the age of 25. --- Sponsors: Just Ingredients - Use code TAKEOVER for 15% off All The Hacks - Upgrade your life, money, and travel Premium Tier - Subscribe for all my guide episodes, endnotes, and mini-episodes Becoming the Main Character Podramp.io - Work with us to make podcasts - You can send me an email at [email protected] --- Sources: Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow The Life of Alexander Hamilton by John C Hamilton --- Writing, research, and production by Ben Wilson Research assistance by Camille Doom Learn more about your ad choices.
