Alexander Hamilton, Revolutionary
Complex, passionate, brilliant, flawed—Alexander Hamilton comes alive in this exciting YA biography by Martha Brockenbrough.
He was born out of wedlock on a small island in the West Indies and orphaned as a teenager. From those inauspicious circumstances, he rose to a position of power and influence in colonial America.
Discover this founding father's incredible true story: his brilliant scholarship and military career; his groundbreaking and enduring policy, which shapes American government today; his salacious and scandalous personal life; his heartrending end.
Richly informed by Hamilton's own writing, with archival artwork and new illustrations, Alexander Hamilton, Revolutionary is an in-depth biography of an extraordinary man.

I love "Hamilton" the Musical it was awesome! However, looking at this book from a YA perspective it was very slow. For teens that really enjoy nonfiction they may get into this but, it is just to jumbled up with a lot of facts. I think a lot of teens will want to read of it because of it being about Alexander Hamilton but, I think they will lose interest after awhile.
