Description

Of all the Founding Fathers of the American republic none, with the conceivable exception of Thomas Jefferson, has evoked more passions and aroused more controversy than Alexander Hamilton.

On this absorbing new biography, eminent historian Lawrence Kaplan examines Hamilton’s conception of The us’s role on the planet and the foreign policies that followed from his vision. Kaplan looks at how Hamilton acted upon his views in shaping the course of American foreign relations.

The creator provides a focused, accessible biography of Hamilton and a nuanced assessment of his affect on Federalist Era foreign policy. Within the Jefferson-Jackson era Hamilton’s persona as an elitist urban aristocrat condemned him as an enemy of an expanding democratic The us-an Anglophile at a time when Great Britain was once the major adversary. Such was once his reputation as an enemy of the common man that his deep-seated opposition to the institution of slavery won little recognition from northern abolitionists.

This book will fascinate readers with its insights into Hamilton and the formative years of the US of The us.
