Founding Father Alexander Hamilton (1757-1804) certainly led an interesting life before his notorious demise at the hands of Vice President Aaron Burrin a pistol duel.

This seven-volume compilation of much of his writings was edited by his son John C. Hamilton. Secretary of State Henry Cabot Lodge later edited a Hamilton papers set, as did Columbia University in 1955 with a much expanded and corrected edition.
