This site holds more than 200 resources about Alexander Hamilton (1755–1804), founding father, first Secretary of the Treasury, part-author of the Federalist Papers and advocate of a strong central government.
Some highlights
Start by reading one of the Web Biographies. Paper Biographies includes reviews of Ron Chernow's new Alexander Hamilton, and others. Primary Sources covers the Federalist Papers, letters, and other writings. Under Biographical Issues you can find sections on his Revolutionary War service, Christian Constitutional Society, his sexuality and other topics. And of course there is The Duel.
New feature: I have a added a gallery of 37 Pictures of Hamilton, found here and there on a web.
Get involved
Add yourself to my Alexander Hamilton list, and get an update when features are added. If you like I can keep you up to date on other American history sites, such as Andrew Jackson on the Web and D-Day on the Web. You'll never get more than one email per month, I promise!
This site is large, but still needs work. Know a good site I missed? Find a broken link? Let me know at [email protected].
Enjoy the site!
