Title: an exceptional biography
Review: This is an extremely well written and researched biography. Chernow arguesconvincingly that Hamilton's contribution to the shaping of the nascent UnitedStates was of fundamental importance and can still be felt in the present.Chernow clearly admires Hamilton (and Hamilton's wife Eliza), but he does showthat it was ultimately Hamilton himself destroyed his own political career. Hisrancorous and frequently inappropriate actions also made it easy for his opponentsto obscure his deserved place in American history.While this is certainly not a hagiography, I concur with other reviewers that Hamilton'senemies are not always portrayed fairly. Jefferson may have been a sly politician,but despite his faults, he was a true visionary. Jefferson's and Madison's contributionsare on par with those of Hamilton. While Hamilton may have been the most talentedof the lot, it is hard to agree with the implied judgement that, whatever his flaws, hewas morally superior to the other two.
