"A refreshing and concise look at the formative years of Alexander Hamilton on St. Croix." -Richard Brookhiser, Senior Editor of National Review and author of Alexander Hamilton, American
"Hoffman shines new light on the little-known life of Alexander Hamilton growing up on St. Croix. This is a valuable contribution to the history of the United States Virgin Islands." -Robert White, The Alexander Hamilton Society of St. Croix
This book starts as far as Alexanders Grandfathers life and rolls into what Alexander Hamilton calls his life. This book talks about his death birth and in between. I really enjoyed reading this book because I have memorized about 20 of the play songs and I thought I might enjoy reading the biography. This book made me feel sad at some points and excited at others. This book was an easy 5 out of 5 stars. If you are the kind of person that loves history and music this is the book for you. If you have read any type of history book and liked the charactor Hamilton this is the book for you.
