Alexander Hamilton, Revolutionary
Alexander Hamilton, Revolutionary | Martha Brockenbrough
6 posts | 4 read | 5 to read
Complex, passionate, brilliant, flawed—Alexander Hamilton comes alive in this exciting biography. He was born out of wedlock on a small island in the West Indies and orphaned as a teenager. From those inauspicious circumstances, he rose to a position of power and influence in colonial America. Discover this founding father's incredible true story: his brilliant scholarship and military career; his groundbreaking and enduring policy, which shapes American government today; his salacious and scandalous personal life; his heartrending end. Richly informed by Hamilton's own writing, with archival artwork and new illustrations, this is an in-depth biography of an extraordinary man.

I got this as a gift because of my love for Hamilton the musical. I have never actually read a historical book for fun, but it was so interesting. I was shocked by the stuff that wouldn't exist if it wasn't for Alexander Hamilton. This was definitely a good read after my trip to New York.

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook about Alexander Hamilton, but the paper copy is so well designed that I had to spend some time looking through it as well.

Clare-Dragonfly Love the cover! 5y

Working at my dad‘s antique store for the afternoon and doing a little #audiocrochet between customers. This would have been the perfect chance to finish my #lmpbc book but I forgot it at work...

ConfessionofaBookaholic There‘s no real rush on that #lmpbc I‘m in finals week until next Thursday, I won‘t be looking at anything but my textbooks until after that 😵 5y

This #toughtuesday required a trip to the candy store, aka Park Road Books, to pick up this new release and reserve a copy of Thomas Mullen's new book which comes out next Tuesday. #awesomeautumnbooks

This book has some great illustrations and the text is sepia colored instead of black. It's like a work of art in itself.
