    About this ebook

    Alexander Hamilton was the architect of the US Constitution. He was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States a little more than two centuries ago. Hamilton was one of the public figures, along with George Washington, to craft and enforce the US Constitution, claiming independence from Great Britain.

    Hamilton's life is a subject to a lot of debates related to his political career and marriage. His life was quite controversial with its ups and downs. Back in the days, before the United States was claiming independence, people like Hamilton protected their honor with gun duels. Whether someone spread bad rumors about another, they would be challenged to a gun duel to protect their honor and dignity. In fact, Hamilton's son lost his life at a very young age, because of those beliefs. Alexander Hamilton was also a true believer in gun duels to sort out any issues they may have with other members of society.

    Hamilton was one of those political figures who had an impact on checks-and-balances via the three branches of Government at that time to limit the power for each branch. He was the first Secretary of Treasury, appointed by George Washington. This shaped the US economy in a more favorable way to facilitate growth and independence, allowing more flexible US Constitution.

    In personal life, Hamilton was very supportive to his family, but made few mistakes during his marriage. In this book, I'll explore in more details Hamilton's affairs, but in order to protect his honor, he had to publicly admit his adultery in front of everyone. You'll find out why is this book!

    In the political scene, Hamilton was a military leader, a fighter, a lawyer, seeking for justice and independence. This gave him to power to influence the Congress to rally people into boycotting taxations without representation, and to fight the British influence in the US.

    I love writing biographies about celebrities (dead or alive), because there's so much to learn from those people. Success leaves clues, so I study and write about successful people.
