Political Power: Alexander Hamilton - Paperback

by Michael L. Frizell (Author), Igor Cicarini (Artist)

Alexander Hamilton wrote, in part, "...the passions of men will not conform to the dictates of reason and justice without constraint." Hamilton, born in poverty, rose to prominence because of his way with words, his skilled prose serving the war effort by enflaming a populace to take up arms. As the first Secretary of State, he created the new nation's system of taxation, the customs service, the National Mint, a national banking system, and much more. His passionate words would also lead to his famous duel with political rival Aaron Burr. Brimming with honor, war, and scandal, his story knew no constraint and is the story of America.
