About

UNIQUE: looks at Hamilton's programs from the perspective of Hamilton's contemporaries, using primary sources. In late 1789, what would the man who cornered Secretary Hamilton in a tavern, or the woman who sat across from him at a dinner party, tell Hamilton he urgently needed to fix? How did Hamilton's programs address those crises? And what made those programs so useful that the programs remained in place long after the crises of the 1780s and 1790s were resolved?
VIVID: Like a novel, history is more gripping if it's told with dialogue rather than third-person exposition. This book provides historical context and then, as often as possible, lets Hamilton and his contemporaries speak for themselves.
