    While this is historical fiction, it was a good representation of Alexander Hamilton. I’m struck by the suffering of the soldiers during the Revolutionary War.

    So apropos for our times, the struggles of a nation never cease. This book will restore your faith in the good of our nation at the same time revealing the omnipresence of the evils of mankind which we all must fight against. It’s a love story for a man, a nation, and a family I will not soon forget.

    I absolutely loved this book. I appreciated that the authors acknowledged the Broadway show with fair warning that because of historical placement, their timelines would be different from the musical. I feel like a lot of people would go into reading this book with the expectations of the show. The story was done beautifully. I really felt that I was in that century. I’m looking forward to reading their other book!

    This book gave me so much more information about the beginning of the United States than I ever learned in school. And the best thing was, as with other historical novels I've read, I didn't have to wonder which parts were fact and which were fiction. The author explains this, in detail, at the end of the book. The story, which is mainly about the life of Alexander Hamilton's wife, Elizabeth, was thoroughly engaging. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.
  • Inaccurate & political

    Wish I hadn’t spent money on this. Historical facts (compare multiple sources) twisted to reiterate democrat’s current campaign to make it look like there have always been “republicans” and that the party of Lincoln are the scum of the earth. Sick of everything being this way now, sick of all the lies and Machiavellian plots and all the politicizing. If you want history the way it happened do Not buy this book.

    My Dear Hamilton is a compelling and magnificently crafted historical fiction novel. It’s the second one that I’ve read by Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie. And, just like the first book, I devoured it. My Dear Hamilton is a five-star, beautifully written and well-researched read. Although I don’t normally read political books, these two, The First American Daughter, and My Dear Hamilton had me captivated until the very last page. Stephanie Dray and Laura Kamoie brought the founding fathers, and Eliza Schuyler Hamilton alive for me. My knowledge of Eliza Schuyler Hamilton’s accomplishments, before reading My Dear Hamilton was limited, but now, after finishing the book, Eliza has my complete admiration. She was strong, elegant, and independent. Eliza Hamilton carried herself with grace, even in the face of humiliation, multiple betrayals, and several devastating losses. Mrs. Hamilton’s loyalty to her country and her husband was nothing short of extraordinary. Eliza tells her husband’s story, his greatness, his flaws and his crushing secrets. Although this book is a historical fiction novel, it reads like a biography. I know I’ll be rereading it, while anxiously waiting for the next book crafted by these talented writers. Highly recommended. Thank you, William Morrow Publishing and Edelweiss, for my advanced review copy. I loved it!
