Alexander Hamilton was an illegitimate, largely self-taught orphan
from the Caribbean who overcame all the odds to become George
Washington's aide-de-camp and the first Treasury Secretary of the
United States. Few figures in American history are more
controversial than Alexander Hamilton. In this masterful work,
Chernow shows how the political and economic power of America today
is the result of Hamilton's willingness to champion ideas that were
often wildly disputed during his time. He charts his titanic feuds
with Jefferson, Adams, Madison, Monroe and Burr; his highly public
affair with Maria Reynolds; his loving marriage to his loyal wife
Eliza; and the notorious duel with Aaron Burr that led to his death
in July 1804. This book was adapted into a hugely successful
Broadway musical - nominated for a record 16 Tony awards and winner
of 11 - opens at the Victoria Palace Theatre in November 2017.
