Alexander Hamilton
from Penguin Audio
Price: $20.87

Customer Review:

An exceptionally well documented and interesting presentation of one of America's most intriguing and brilliant characters. Washington, our nation's greatest leader, needed Hamilton's intellect to lay the foundation for our system of government. Absent Washington's character influence, Hamilton... more info

Alexander Hamilton, American
from Free Press
Price: $5.48

Customer Review:

Biographically poor, it runs over Hamilton's life rather than going through it. It's an essay then, not a biography; and it will not do at all if you are looking into Hamilton for the first time. And it is not an entertaining book; it has a somewhat brooding mood, a mixture of admiration and sorrow... more info

The Whiskey Rebellion: George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, and the Frontier Rebels Who Challenged America's Newfound Sovereignty
from Scribner
Price: $5.56

Customer Review:

Hogeland's big problem is that he doesn't understand American history. He fails to appreciate that suppression of the Whiskey Rebellion by Washington and Hamilton was a necessary step in the birth of the United States under capitalism, and that the latter was an incredibly glorious event with... more info

Thomas Jefferson Versus Alexander Hamilton: Confrontations that Shaped a Nation (Bedford Series in History and Culture)
from Palgrave Macmillan
Price: $45.63

Customer Review:

Although there are some interesting things here, the choice is somewhat strange and the limited number of papers disappointing. Missing for example, is something from Hamilton's Federalist Papers (which I think most people would consider his most important writing) or Jefferson's Notes on the State... more info

Burr, Hamilton, and Jefferson: A Study in Character
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $10.97

Customer Review:

This book has a beginning but not a middle or an ending. He skips, for example, Burr's final trial in front of Marshall that was the cornerstone of the Jefferson/Marshall antipathy. (There is discussion of the surrounds political background and a touch of the law involved, but no more.) I was, and... more info

The Union That Shaped the Confederacy: Robert Toombs and Alexander H. Stephens
from University Press of Kansas

Davis has written many books and this is one of his better. Robert Toombs and Alexander H. Stephens are both important figures in the Confederacy and in American political history of the ante-bellum period. The book points out the intimacy of these two and gives an insight into the background of the... more info

Alexander Hamilton: A Biography
from W. W. Norton and Company, Inc.
Price: $10.90

Customer Review:

McDonald seems to have set out to write a book emphasizing Hamilton's political and financial/administrative contributions to the new republic and that is what he did. There is relatively little on Hamilton's personal life. For that one must look elsewhere (to Ron Chernow for example). The book is... more info
