A bold reimagining of the early American republic, this novel gives voice to Aaron Burr, one of the most controversial and enigmatic figures of the Revolutionary era. Framed through the recollections of a young law clerk in 1830s New York, the aging Burr recounts his political career, his rivalry with Alexander Hamilton, and his fraught relationships with Washington and Jefferson. The result is a sharp, revisionist portrait that questions the myths surrounding the “Founding Fathers” and exposes the ambition, intrigue, and personal vendettas behind the nation’s birth. Written by a celebrated American novelist and essayist known for his wit and historical insight, this book will appeal to readers who enjoy intelligent historical fiction that challenges orthodox history and brings the past vividly—and provocatively—to life.
