Reddit reviews Alexander Hamilton: An intimate portrait

We don't have a firm date for this event, so we shouldn't be surprised if some writers vary in dating it. (For that matter, I'm not wholly confident that it actually happened.) But if it did happen, it would have to have been sometime between March 1825 (when Monroe left the presidency) and July 1831 (when he died).

Chernow is good. (As LMM sometimes says on Twitter, "get thee to Chernow.") I also like the shorter biographies of Hamilton by Noemie Emery and Richard Brookhiser. And of course there are many, many other excellent books about the founders and their various relationships. It all depends on your interests and what styles of writing you prefer. My personal favorite biographical work about the Founders is James Thomas Flexner's biography of George Washington, which was originally published in four wonderful volumes, but can also be found abridged in a one-volume version called The Indispensable Man.
