He was not born in the colonies at all. He was born in the West Indies, the son of a woman of French descent who had left her husband for another man. As an illegitimate child, Hamilton could not be educated in the local church school, so businessmen, impressed by his remarkable intelligence, sent him to America for his schooling. The American Revolution would interrupt his vacation but accelerate his promotion to the national stage from his service as George Washington's aide-de-camp to his position as the new nation's first Secretary of the Treasury. Hamilton understood money and knew that for the nation to thrive, it had to become financially strong, a stance which brought him into contention with other Founding Fathers who distrusted his enthusiasm for a strong central government. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHis extramarital affair with a married woman brought his public career to a conclusion but he continued to involve himself in political intrigue. It was his role in a contested election that brought him to a duel with Aaron Burr, the shadowy character in American history. Scandal and death cannot overpower the mighty role he played in building the United States of America. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiscover a plethora of topics such as\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHamilton Rises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Patriotic Prodigy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHamilton the Politician and Puller of Strings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWashington's Man at the Treasury\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Reynolds Affair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack to New York\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHamilton and Burr: The Final Chapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hourly History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8859882974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798859882977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Hourly History","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46420427178239,"sku":"9798859882977","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_04df74f1-16c7-4408-9d0b-3a95e75df6ec.jpg?v=1734634601","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alexander-hamilton-hourly-history-9798859882977","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
