Testimonials

"George brought Alexander Hamilton to life as he told us about the young man who helped form this nation. Very interesting with information I was excited to learn about .Nicely presented with documentation and pictures. Well done. A few people in the small group knew a bit about American Revolutionary History and New York City from 1774 to 1804. George knew his stuff and was eager to explore interesting tidbits with them to benefit everyone on the tour. He also provided resources for further discovery."
