"The best book of the year!" Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Alice Network
Wife, Widow, and Warrior in Alexander Hamilton's quest for a more perfect union
From the New York Times bestselling authors of America's First Daughter comes the epic story of Eliza Schuyler Hamiltona revolutionary woman who, like her new nation, struggled to define herself in the wake of war, betrayal, and tragedy. This biographical novel is perfect for fans of Ron Chernow's biography Alexander Hamilton and fans of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton: the Musical.
In this haunting, moving, and beautifully written piece of American historical fiction, Dray and Kamoie used thousands of letters and original sources to tell Eliza's story as it's never been told beforenot just as the wronged wife at the center of a political sex scandalbut also as one of the founding mothers who shaped an American legacy in her own right.
