hill used by alexander hamilton and his artillery. now another question comes up. was hamilton at the battle of white plains? probably not. thanks to the scholarship of my friend michael newton who is also speaking today at another location, michael is a scholar of alexander hamilton and has written not one but two books on hamilton. hamilton the formative years and discovering hamilton and what michael has been able to demonstrate with primary source evidence is that 9/10 of the artillery were not at the battle of white plains. there's a nine out of ten chance that hamilton was not there and furthermore neither henry knox or george washington mention hamilton or his unit by name. now this we do know for sure. hamilton first full-fledged combat, he's not just shooting at two ships in the river and, you know, a cannon explodes near him a few minutes later. this is full combat now. my grandfather was a career marine, i can appreciate how traumatic this must have been. he was at rutrutgers. this is brunswick, new jersey. it was the queen's college campus. it wasn't known as rutgers, just like columbia was formerly known as king's college. that's where hamilton was attend
