Alexander Hamilton and the Development of American Law

On the anniversary of Alexander Hamilton's birth The Museum of American Finance is presenting a talk on his legal legacy by Kate Elizabeth Brown. In her biography, "Alexander Hamilton and the Development of American Law," Dr. Brown recasts our understanding of Hamilton’s political career, his policy achievements and his significant role in the American founding by considering him first and foremost as a preeminent lawyer who applied law and legal arguments to accomplish his statecraft.
