Track 8: Post-war. Studying. “The beauty of the law is its ambiguity.” Establishing his practice.

Track 9: Meeting Hamilton in court. Friendly sparring. They are the two titans of the NY bar. Mutual respect masked as competition.

Track 10: Visiting Theodosia Prevost. She’s married to a British officer. The intellectual connection.

Track 4: Brief stint on Washington’s staff. He finds Washington cold/indecisive. Hamilton arrives and becomes the favorite.

Track 6: While Hamilton writes letters, Burr drills the troops. The contrast between words and action.

Track 7: The heat. The horse shot from under him. Heatstroke. The war ends for him physically, but mental scars remain.

Track 1: Intro. Born into greatness (Edwards/Burr). Orphaned. Graduating Princeton at 16. The world is waiting for him.

Track 2: The weight of his ancestors. He isn’t starting from the bottom like Hamilton; he’s starting from the top and has to maintain it.

Track 3: The march to Quebec. Eating shoe leather. The failed attack. Carrying General Montgomery’s body. True heroism.
