Kind of supplies of gold that have been found by the spaniards. It was a source of bitter disappointment to not find gold in what is now virginia. They brought with him jewelers and goldsmiths. Americas first Gold Rush took place close to us in georgia in 1829, this was the Georgia Gold Rush in north georgia. If youve been about hundred miles north of here you can see that the old County Courthouse has been converted into mining museum. It is about 100 miles up the road. What happened was, the first gold was discovered, then suddenly people start pouring into the area, huge numbers. Because of the intoxicating possibility that gold would make them wealthy quickly. And tell them, this had been an area behind the line of settlement. But suddenly, the white settlement catches up very quickly. Here is the governor, describing what it was like meeting the georgia miners in 1829. Many thousands of idle profit people flocked into georgia from every point of the compass. Whos pentup vicious pr
Our finder, and share, john herzog. And Sarah Keller has brought some amazing and of course this espn audience but he was referring to is that hed been introduced to a ph. D. Candidate who was very interested in Alexander Hamilton in early american financial history and you have to remember that this is well before the people who are more interested in hamilton, very few of us were interested in that and doing a deeper dive on the financial aspects of his vision. In our first look at bob was this ph. D. Thesis, 1300 pages. That is staggering. To put that into perspective, models a paltry 300, his is 1000 more. And it led to the first quid about bob. Which was that he cannot hold his ink. [laughs] well, fast forward some 20 years. Hes got 20 more books that hes either authored and that led to a second quid about bob is that he writes books faster than we can read them. Now, if you add to that five edited volumes, 65 scholarly articles, many of which have received awards. Im seriously on

Feature. This is about an hour and 20 minutes. Thank you guys so much. I have been this is my second year. I also did some other things at the museum. Id also like to thank everybody at the 9 11 museum. So easy to work with. The entire staff is wonderful. It hit me last year and i thought maybe this year it would be different, that id already experienced the 9 11 museum and now it would become opaque being in this space, and its not. This space as you know over the last five days is hallowed ground and a powerful place and a hard place in a sense to do something as mundane as give a lecture. So im going to do my best to do that. And i say that because some of the things were going to talk about are weird. Some of them are funny. Some of them are scary. Some of them are gross. And i dont want any of that to seem disrespectful to the space were in. Nothing we can do as lincoln said can unhallow this ground that is hallowed.
