Episode 4: Speaker of the House



As the Civil War erupts, Schuyler Colfax rises to national power — missing a cabinet seat but gaining the gavel. From his leadership in wartime Congress to the proposals of the 13th and 14th Amendments, Colfax helps reshape the nation in its most turbulent hour. This episode chronicles his years as Speaker of the House: the battles with Andrew Johnson, the impeachment crisis, and the radical redefinition of American freedom.
