On this episode of Our American Stories, today, Charles Carroll is one of America's most overlooked Founding Fathers. But during the Revolutionary era, he helped finance the fight for independence, shaped Maryland's government, influenced the creation of the U.S. Senate, and became the only Catholic to sign the Declaration of Independence.
Dr. Bradley J. Birzer, author of American Cicero: The Life of Charles Carroll, shares the remarkable story of the last surviving signer of the Declaration and explains how a man who overcame deep anti-Catholic prejudice became one of the most respected figures of the American founding.
