The Amorous Intrigues and Adventures of Aaron Burr (1861) is an
erotic biography of Aaron Burr. Published anonymously decades after
Burr's death, the book incorporates some of the well-known facts
and scandals of his political life-including his arrest for treason
and murder of Alexander Hamilton-with lurid fantasies of his
legendary encounters with women. Comparable, perhaps, to the modern
phenomenon of fan fiction, The Amorous Intrigues and Adventures of
Aaron Burr is a risque recreation of an infamous American's
romantic endeavors. "This talented, heroic, and energetic man was
an adorer of the fair sex. From the age of puberty to the day of
his death, (which occurred in his eightieth year,) Aaron Burr was
keenly alive to the fascinations of the fairer portion of creation,
and esteemed their smiles as sunny rays darted from heaven." You
might think you know everything there is to know about Aaron
Burr-disgraced several times over, banished from political life
following his very public downfall, his story is a cautionary tale
of excess and ambition played out on the nation's biggest stage.
For the anonymous author of The Amorous Intrigues and Adventures of
Aaron Burr, the facts-both historical and anecdotal-were simply not
enough. In this erotic examination of Burr's legendary love life,
we find another angle on a man who would be myth, a man shown here
to be somehow less principled, and frequently less clothed, than
the one we thought we knew. With a beautifully designed cover and
professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Amorous
Intrigues and Adventures of Aaron Burr is a classic of American
erotic fiction reimagined for modern readers.
