Few can match the commitment, tenacity and career of the Marquis de Lafayette. Soldier, statesman, philanthropist, and abolitionist, Lafayette led charges, overthrew kings, and sparred with emperors. A flawed idealist, Lafayette fought for what he saw as the rights of all mankind while also enjoying the finer things in life as a member of the aristocracy.
Continuing with the Revolution November spirit, host-historians Chris Anderson and Rick Beyer welcome acclaimed podcaster Mike Duncan to talk about his new book: Hero of Two Worlds: The Marquis de Lafayette in the Age of Revolution. This Sunday at 4PM ET on History Happy Hour, the spot where history is always on tap.
