About this listen
Acclaimed biographer Jean Fritz writes the remarkable story of Alexander Hamilton, one of America's most influential and fascinating founding fathers, and his untimely death in a duel with Aaron Burr.
Born in the British West Indies, Hamilton arrived in New York as an "outsider". He fought in the Revolution and became Washington's most valuable aide-de-camp. He was there with Washington, Madison, and the others writing the Constitution. He was the first secretary of the treasury as the country struggled to become unified and independent.
Fritz's talent for bringing historical figures to life is at its best as she shares her fascination with this man of action who was honorable, ambitious, and fiercely loyal to his adopted country.

Biography Or Fiction?
I was not sure wether this book was biography or fiction. There are no artistic descriptions or any conversations. Yet instead of everything being pure fact, there are random details that give fictional impressions. All in all, I think that the book doesn't know what it is, making the reader confused. If you want a book an Alexander Hamilton, there are better ones out there for you. If you want biography, go for Ron Chernow's, if you want fiction, go for the 'Alex & Eliza Trilogy', by Melissa de le Cruz. Seriously, there are better things to spend you're money on than this.
