Let me first say that I am not one who can spend more than a half-hour or so reading in a single sitting....my schedule just does not allow. Chernow's biography is a great work but the level of detail kept me backing up and restarting. Time was short....I had tickets to see the play "Hamilton" in NYC in less than a month and I had to bone up so as not to be too ignorant on the mans life prior to seeing the play. This book grabbed me from page one and was so good I went out of my way to find opportunities to squeeze in a few more minutes to read here and there. Chapter one hooks you from the opening line and follows with the description of the last day of Hamilton's life (take a peek with the LOOK INSIDE feature). From that point my interest to know more was off to the races. Reading this book was sheer pleasure and was a wonderful lesson on the politics and personalities of part of the Revolutionary War. In high school history bored me ( I'm more of a math/science guy) , but now 50 years later books like this one (along with cruising google maps to see exact locations of sites described) puts a whole new spin on it. I will probably still read Chernow's "Hamilton" but it is likely that Randall's book will be the one I remember with greater fondness. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars What a genius! *by L***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 19, 2020* I marveled at how a orphaned boy with very little early formal education could be so creatively intelligent! How he knew things about how finance and banking should work that his older and better educated founding fathers did not know. He had a gift from God that helped start America on the right path. I learned so much from this book and found it extremely interesting. My only complaint was how it ended. His story ended absolutely abruptly with the duel that killed him! Then what happened?! What was the reaction of the people, his friends, his enemies, his family? Another page or two or even a chapter to summarize his life and legacy would have been helpful. Oh well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Power and Reputation *by C***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 3, 2022* An interesting read showing the use of power and position throughout Hamilton's lifetime. It also shows the importance of reputation and friendships during the time of the Revolutionary War and the early years of the Constitution. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13032751-alexander-hamilton-a-life](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13032751-alexander-hamilton-a-life) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
