From the author of White Trash and The Problem of Democracy, a
controversial challenge to the views of the Founding Fathers
offered by Ron Chernow and David McCullough Lin-Manuel Miranda's
play "Hamilton" has reignited interest in the founding fathers; and
it features Aaron Burr among its vibrant cast of characters. With
Fallen Founder, Nancy Isenberg plumbs rare and obscure sources to
shed new light on everyone's favorite founding villain. The Aaron
Burr whom we meet through Isenberg's eye-opening biography is a
feminist, an Enlightenment figure on par with Jefferson, a patriot,
and-most importantly-a man with powerful enemies in an age of
vitriolic political fighting. Revealing the gritty reality of
eighteenth-century America, Fallen Founder is the authoritative
restoration of a figure who ran afoul of history and a much-needed
antidote to the hagiography of the revolutionary era.
