Description: American Machiavelli by John Lamberton Harper Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A narrative study of the career of Alexander Hamilton (1757–1804), the illegitimate West Indian emigrant who became the first US Secretary of the Treasury and President George Washingtons closest collaborator. It focuses on Hamiltons controversial activities as a foreign policy adviser and aspiring military leader during the 1790s. Publisher Description Alexander Hamilton rose from humble beginnings to become the premier statebuilder and strategic thinker of the American Founding generation. This book is the first detailed narrative study of his role in foreign policy to appear in more than thirty years. It focuses on Hamiltons controversial activities as a key member of George Washingtons cabinet and as an aspiring military leader in the 1790s - a decade of profound division over the shape and powers of the Federal government, and US policy toward the warring powers of Europe. Drawing parallels between Hamilton and the Florentine diplomatist and thinker, Niccolo Machiavelli, prize-winning historian John Lamberton Harper offers an insightful and accessible account of the origins of Hamiltons outlook, his bitterly personal rivalries with Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, and his indispensable part in designing and implementing a foreign policy able to ensure the survival of the infant United States.
