About this audiobook
He began as a carpenter’s apprentice in Virginia with nothing but calloused hands and stubborn ambition. George Walton taught himself law by firelight, became a Master Mason in Solomon’s Lodge No. 1, rose to lead Georgia’s Provincial Congress, and signed the Declaration of Independence as its youngest signer.
This four-episode series follows his full story: the brutal apprentice years, rapid rise as a sharp Savannah attorney, leadership in the patriot cause, the musket ball that shattered his thigh at Savannah, nearly ten months as a British prisoner of war, and the long postwar grind as chief justice, governor, U.S. Senator, and builder of Georgia’s courts and government.
No myths or marble statues. Just the raw account of a self-made man who applied Masonic working tools to real life while carrying the contradictions and constant pain of a war wound that never healed.
If you want the honest story of how one rough ashlar helped shape a state and a nation, this is it.
