Description
Alexander Hamilton Nov 7, Tues 2 – 3:30 p.m. Homewood Library Instructor: Richard Rhone, retired History Instructor Never mind paying for tickets to the Broadway production. Learn the life story of this amazing historical figure from a history teacher who has channeled his life. Alexander Hamilton was truly a self-made man, not the inheritor of a family legacy. As George Washington’s most trusted adviser, he was the one who made the new constitutional government of the United States actually work. In spite of the humiliation of his birth, or his childhood poverty, and not being a native American - or maybe because of it - he was perhaps the greatest true American of our Founding Fathers.
