The 1960's and 1970's were a time of change, a time of revolution, a time of the Hippies. Hippies reached across the nation and their effects are still felt today.

This documentary explores the character and accomplishments of George Washington as a warrior, a politician, and a charismatic leader. Also gives views of Washington through modern people and events.

Hosted by Richard Brookhiser, and produced and directed by Michael Pack, Rediscovering Alexander Hamilton tells the dramatic story of our least understood founding father. Following the style of the acclaimed Rediscovering George Washington (2002), Brookhiser walks the paths of Hamilton's life, from the Caribbean islands where he was born, to Yorktown and Wall Street where he fought and worked, to Harlem and Weehawken, where he lived and died. We hear a Treasurey Secretary, a Supreme Court Justice, publishers, warriors, pornographers, lawyers, calypso singers and urban gang members talk about money, rights, news, battle, sex and honor -- all the themes that shaped Hamilton's life, helped him make modern capitalist America, and led to his death in the most famous duel in American history

Filmed across eleven states, this documentary explores the life of the greatest judge in American history, John Marshall, who built the Supreme Court into the third pillar of American government. With in-depth interviews with scholars, judges and Chief Justice Roberts, the film brings to life a time of transition and turmoil when the success of the American 'experiment' was still in doubt
