The year was 1830, and while his schoolmates at Amherst Academy were struggling with Latin conjugations and mathematical theorems, young Colt was consumed by a vision that would revolutionize warfare, law enforcement, and the very character of American expansion: a pistol that could fire multiple shots in rapid succession without reloading. This moment of inspiration, whether sparked by observing a ships wheel during a voyage to India or simply by his mechanical intuition, would drive him to create not just a new type of weapon but an entirely new approach to manufacturing that would help establish America as an industrial power.</p><p>Samuel Colt was born on July 19, 1814, in Hartford, Connecticut, into a family that embodied both the entrepreneurial spirit and the restless ambition that characterized the young American republic. His father, Christopher Colt, was a textile manufacturer whose business ventures reflected the economic volatility of the early industrial period, experiencing both success and failure as he navigated the uncertain waters of American commerce. The familys comfortable but unstable circumstances exposed young Samuel to both the possibilities of industrial enterprise and the risks inherent in innovation and business development, lessons that would prove crucial as he later struggled to establish his own manufacturing empire.</p>...7192069Samuel Colt6161https://www.gandhi.com.mx/samuel-colt-9798318040016/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7204122/image.jpg?v=638854338079700000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20259798318040016_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9798318040016_<p>This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.</p><p>The acrid smoke of black powder drifted across the Connecticut River as sixteen-year-old Samuel Colt pulled the trigger of his crude wooden revolver for the sixth consecutive time, each shot fired without the laborious reloading that plagued every other firearm of his era.
