    I just finished this marvelous biography today. What a fascinating story filled with brilliant, passionate, complex people and violent, turbulent, profound history.
    Thanks so much for telling the story of Alexander Hamilton, Mr. Chernow.

      The camera we use backs up to tape, and that was the point when the first tape reached capacity and we put a second one in the camera. That process also causes the camera to close one digital file and open a new one, thus the momentary drop.

      Nothing was edited out. The camera we use backs up to tape, and that was the point when the first tape reached capacity and we put a second one in the camera. That process also causes the camera to close one digital file and open a new one, thus the momentary drop.

    The best aspect of the casting is giving minorities an active part of the founding of the country and not the animosity fueled by black "leaders."

    You said in your book slaves were drunk and lazy but who need a slave to do all that work. You could have kept it out of your book but you didn't because he had to take a shot for your own personal reasons!

    But... the Founding Fathers weren't multiracial...

      Neither did they burst into song and rap and dance. The musical isn't really concerned with an accurate likeness of the people, it focuses on their personalities, emotions, and motivations. If it were a biography on HBO, then of course Washington wouldn't be black and Hamilton wouldn't be latino, but in a musical (which already requires suspension of disbelief) it really doesn't matter. And Lin Manuel already said this musical is "the story of America then, told by America now".
