Alexander Hamilton started his life in the British West Indies. His story seems like a classic tale from rags to riches, of a poor boy whose hard work and perseverance allowed him to become one of the greatest historical figures of a nation. Alexander Hamilton left behind an impressive legacy, in no small part due to his success in defining the economic and political systems of the United States.

And much more!

Hamilton’s Federalist Papers continue to be the basis for Constitutional interpretation and court decisions throughout the nation, and his creation of a national bank and decision to support a strong federal power over states’ power helped lay the groundwork for what could be considered a national issue over a state issue. However, his reputation wasn’t always so golden. These volumes offer a fuller picture of the life of Alexander Hamilton and the various factors that combined to make the life of such a driven, intriguing man.

Excellent

I consider that history books talk on behalf of many people who had made a great contribution for humanity.
I’m so glad, because it’s been a good practice in order to perform a better reading comprehension and to enrich myself with new vocabulary.

Just Fascinating!

An incredible biography of Alexander Hamilton, one of the most productive brilliant minds of the early year in the US republic. In the end chapters one of the most dramatic books that I ever listen.

Best informative.

A short compact look at Mr. Hamilton. Will drive you to learn more about this very complicated, very intelligent, little known founding father of Anerica's banking system.

A good book 10/10

this book was very interesting and I talks about the life of hamilton. I never knew that the life of Alexander hamilton was a very troubleing. I love this book and was glad I stumbled upon it.

Great historical biography.

Great insight into the political intrigue in our nation’s earliest days. Hamilton was a flawed genius. This book explains his contributions as well as his foibles. Strongly recommended.
