Summary

Washington. Adams. Jefferson. Madison. Hamilton. There are certain Founding Fathers with whom are all very familiar. But there are also those who are less well-known but not less important. John Witherspoon is one such historical figure. Our guest today is Jeffry Morrison, Professor of American Studies at Christopher Newport University and Director of Academics at the federal government's James Madison Foundation. Dr. Morrison will teach us about this important founder and explain why John Witherspoon is "the most interesting Founding Father you have never heard of."
