Fantastic read—so much did not know about him.

I have read a couple of dozen books about Hamilton.

The best (not that you asked) are those by Forrest MacDonald (It is the best to explain the various financial programs); the Rise and Fall of Alexander Hamilton by Robert Hendrickson ((comprehensive); AH & American Foreign Policy; and AH & the Founding of the Nation among others.

I am such a Hamilton nut that I have 39 books about him and have read them all. I even spent 10 yrs writing a screenplay about him.

Trump is like Hamilton in that they both have infinite energy and are ardent Nationalists.
