    About this audiobook

    Founding father Alexander Hamilton led a passionate and meaningful life. Nicknamed Little Lion for his short stature and bold ideas, Hamilton played an integral role in the founding of America's union after the Revolutionary War as well the drafting and executing of America's Constitution.

    His life, chronicled in Charles Arthur Conant's biography of him, exemplifies hard work and accomplishment. Along with fighting in the Revolutionary War, he became America's first secretary of the Treasury under Washington's administration, where he set up the nation's first financial system.

    This biographical account of Hamilton's life shows how important he was to the birth and eventual administration of the young American nation. The life of Alexander Hamilton, as recently performed in the Broadway musical.

      This is a short (145 page) bioagraphy by a great fan of Hamilton. It is extremely biased and almost fawning in its praise. Its redeeming feature is its concentration on Hamilton's role in finance and banking, and Conant includes many details in that area that are missing from more extensive biographies. He also provides some worthwhile details on the Federalist vs. Jeffersonian Republican struggles. If you are interested in those aspects it s a worthwhile read.
