Exploring Legal Gladiator and Beyond with Historian Solomon Schmidt

In this episode of Hashing Out The Law, we welcome Solomon Schmidt, an accomplished young historian and author, for an insightful conversation about his journey and his latest biography, Legal Gladiator: The Life of Alan Dershowitz. At just 12 years old, Solomon began writing his series History Bites and has since published eight books, created over 150 educational videos, and traveled internationally to bring history to life through his YouTube channel. Known as "the youngest child historian in America," Solomon shares his unique perspective on some of history's most controversial and complex figures. Legal Gladiator dives into the life and career of Alan Dershowitz, one of America’s most influential and polarizing attorneys. As a lawyer and advocate, Dershowitz’s career spans high-profile cases from O.J. Simpson to Jeffrey Epstein, and his work defending the principle of a fair trial has influenced legal thinking on constitutional rights and justice. With unprecedented access to Dershowitz’s personal archives and interviews, Solomon captures both the triumphs and controversies of a man who dedicated his life to the courtroom. Tune in to learn more about this compelling book and Solomon’s work as a historian shedding light on pivotal legal stories and figures.Get your copy of the Legal Gladiator:
