  5. He made one fortune in indigo, another selling saltpeter to the tsar's army, a third running a gold-dust bank in Sacramento. At forty-eight, Heinrich Schliemann quit it all to go dig for Homer's Troy. He could brag about it in fifteen languages.

  23. "3-7-77" wasn't just a number — it was a death sentence. In 1863, gold-crazed Montana had no law, so miners built their own: hoods, ropes, and a secret oath. 21 outlaws hanged in six weeks, including the sheriff himself. Their mark still rides on Montana Highway Patrol badges today.

  28. He left school around ten. He invented a way for moving trains to telegraph each other. He beat Thomas Edison's lawyers in court. Twice. Edison offered him a job. Granville Woods said no, then sold the company patents anyway.
