Welcome back all history fans to the Giants of History Podcast!

In this third episode of a now four part series, we explore Rockefeller’s first three years as a bookkeeper in the business world…a time which he would later refer to as his “apprenticeship”.  But Rockefeller has bigger plans for himself as we shall see, and his time as a bookkeeper at Hewitt & Tuttle proves to be the perfect training ground for the future king of capitalism.  We hope you enjoy!

Welcome back all history fans to the Giants of History Podcast!

In this first episode of a three part series, we explore the rough and humble beginnings of America’s most legendary capitalist, John D. Rockefeller.  His early years are anything but typical, but a tough living situation forces him to develop a skill set that he’ll find very useful later in life.  Also, an early experience with money proves a revelation for the young Rockefeller and sets him on his path.  We hope you enjoy!

Welcome back all history fans to the Giants of History Podcast!

In this episode, we explore one of the greatest Presidents in United States history Abraham Lincoln.  Lincoln’s life is a study in the power of perseverance, and nowhere is that power better put on display then in reviewing a list that has become legendary in this day and age, and that is the list of “Lincoln’s Famous Failures.”  There is so much to be learned from Lincoln and this lesson is one that certainly transcends generations and time.  We hope you enjoy!
