Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ron Chernow presents a landmark biography of Alexander Hamilton, the Founding Father who galvanized, inspired, scandalized, and shaped the newborn nation. In the first full-length biography of Alexander Hamilton in decades, Ron Chernow tells the riveting story of a man who overcame all odds to shape, inspire, and scandalize the newborn America.According to historian Joseph Ellis, "Alexander Hamilton" is a robust full-length portrait, in my view the best ever written, of the most brilliant, charismatic and dangerous founder of them all. Few figures in American history have been more hotly debated or more grossly misunderstood than Alexander Hamilton. Chernow's biography gives Hamilton his due and sets the record straight, deftly illustrating that the political and economic greatness of today's America is the result of Hamilton's countless sacrifices to champion ideas that were often wildly disputed during his time. To repudiate his legacy, Chernow writes, is, in many ways, to repudiate the modern world. Chernow here recounts Hamilton's turbulent life: an illegitimate, largely self-taught orphan from the Caribbean, he came out of nowhere to take America by storm, rising to become George Washington's aide-de-camp in the Continental Army, coauthoring The Federalist Papers, founding the Bank of New York, leading the Federalist Party, and becoming the first Treasury Secretary of the United States.Historians have long told the story of America s birth as the triumph of Jefferson s democratic ideals over the aristocratic intentions of Hamilton. Chernow presents an entirely different man, whose legendary ambitions were motivated not merely by self-interest but by passionate patriotism and a stubborn will to build the foundations of American prosperity and power. Hamilton far more human than we've encountered before from his shame about his birth to his fiery aspirations, from his intimate relationships with childhood friends to his titanic feuds with Jefferson, Madison, Adams, Monroe, and Burr, and from his highly public affair with Maria Reynolds to his loving marriage to his loyal wife Eliza. And never before has there been a more vivid account of Hamilton's famous and mysterious death in a duel with Aaron Burr in July of 1804. Chernow's biography is not just a portrait of Hamilton, but the story of America s birth seen through its most central figure. At a critical time to look back to our roots, "Alexander Hamilton" will remind readers of the purpose of our institutions and our heritage as Americans. Nobody has captured Hamilton better than Chernow " - The New York Times Book ReviewReview quote:Grand-scale biography at its best-thorough, insightful, consistently fair, and superbly written . . . a genuinely great book. (David McCullough, author of "John Adams" and "Truman")Impressively thorough, superbly written and carefully researched. ("The Wall Street Journal") A substantial, detailed and masterful story about one of American historys eminal figures... a must-read. Ron Chernows masterpiece. ("USA Today")"...Nobody has captured Hamilton better than Chernow..." - The New York Times Book Review"...A biography commensurate with Hamilton's character, as well as the full, complex context of his unflaggingly active life.... This is a fine work that captures Hamilton's life with judiciousness and verve." - Publishers Weekly"A splendid life of an enlightened reactionary and forgotten Founding Father. Literate and full of engaging historical asides. By far the best of the many lives of Hamilton now in print, and a model of the biographer's art."- Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)"A robust full-length portrait, in my view the best ever written, of the most brilliant, charismatic and dangerous founder of them all." - Joseph J. Ellis, author of Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation"A brilliant historian has done it again! The thoroughness and integrity of Ron Chernow's research shines forth on every page of his Alexander Hamilton . He has created a vivid and compelling portrait of a remarkable man-and at the same time he has made a monumental contribution to our understanding of the beginnings of the American Republic." - Robert A. Caro , author of The Power Broker and The Years of Lyndon Johnson"Alexander Hamilton was one of the most brilliant men of his brilliant time, and one of the most fascinating figures in all of American history. His rocketing life-story is utterly amazing. His importance to the founding of the new nation, and thus to the whole course of American history, can hardly be overstated. And so Ron Chernow's new Hamilton could not be more welcome. This is grand-scale biography at its best-thorough, insightful, consistently fair, and superbly written. It clears away more than a few shop-worn misconceptions about Hamilton, gives credit where credit is due, and is both clear-eyed and understanding about its very human subject. Its numerous portraits of the complex, often conflicting cast of characters are deft and telling. The whole life and times are here in a genuinely great book." - David McCullough , author of John AdamsAbout Author:RON CHERNOW is the Pulitzer prize-winning author of five previous books. His first, "The House of Morgan," won the National Book Award. His two most recent books, "Alexander Hamilton" and "Titan: The Life of John D. Rockefeller, Sr.," were both nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award in biography. "Washington: A Life "received the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Biography.
