Ron Chernow’s “Alexander Hamilton” was published in 2004 and remains one of the most popular biographies of all time.
It was a New York Times best-seller and served as the inspiration behind Lin-Manuel Miranda’s award-winning musical “Hamilton.” Chernow is the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning “Washington: A Life.” His most recent biography “Grant” was published in 2017.
Few books come with higher expectations than this biography of America’s most brash, self-assured and hyperkinetic Founding Father.
But not only does Chernow’s narrative of this intriguing Revolutionary-era figure surpass lofty expectations, it may well set the standard for the nearly perfect biography.
Meticulously researched and brilliantly composed, this biography contains 731 pages of text and cover
