Learn more about the men who inspired Hamilton: The Musical in this fascinating look at the historical friends turned revolutionary rivals

In curiously parallel lives, Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr were both orphaned at an early age. Both were brilliant students who attended college--one at Princeton, the other at Columbia--and studied law. Both were young staff officers under General George Washington, and both became war heroes. Politics beckoned them, and each served in the newly formed government of the fledgling nation. Why, then, did these two face each other at dawn in a duel that ended with death for one and harsh criticism for the other?

Judith St. George's lively biography, told in alternating chapters, brings to life two complex men who played major roles in the formation of the United States.

Format: Kindle
I love the book. I think he is honest and courageous for exposing demonic oppression. I had no idea how throughly racist the system is. I have highlighted just about every page. I have even shared qoutes on face book. I really think he could help his people eliminate racism, opression and colorblindness. Thank you Tim!

Solutions to the eradication of subtle racism that still exists in the United States
Format: Kindle
In this book - Colorblind: The Rise of Post-Racial Politics - Tim Wise called out those who are in denial of racism in the era of Obama. He not only gave examples of existence, but also enunciated solutions to tackle it. In fact there are everything to be done both in private capacity as well as public policies. Anyone who is perturbed by the overwhelming racial disparity would find this book very illuminating.
