Constitutional Chats, Episode 279
Most of us are familiar with the heroes of the American Revolution like George Washington, John Paul Jones and Alexander Hamilton. But there are so many brave war heroes who risked everything to win our country’s independence. Today, we celebrate those lesser-known, but by no means less-important, historical figures. Our guest is a long-time friend to Constituting America. Tom Hand will discuss his new book highlighting these figures and share his knowledge with our student panel in this very informative and fascinating conversation.
