Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow

5.0

36 hours of listening later...I now know everything I could have ever possibly wanted to know about Alexander Hamilton. I actually tried out Audible for this venture, and I would highly recommend the service, it's fantastic. Now obviously the main reason why I listened to 800+ pages worth of biography is because I am going to see Hamilton the musical in a month, but as a hard core history nerd I appreciated the extended look into someone I honestly didn't remember much about. I was borderline obsessed with the Revolutionary War as a kid (I know, I was super weird) but Hamilton always escaped my notice. His life was basically a soap opera (look no further than the Reynolds Pamphlet) but he did so much to shape the nation and the Constitution. He deserves all the accolades as one of the America's first and finest politicians
