Overview
Best Alexander Hamilton tour in the city, from a published historian who has spent a lifetime reading and learning about Hamilton. There's so much more to this great American than the depiction presented by the Broadway show. We'll fill in the rest of the picture for you in a fun and entertaining way.
We'll make you laugh with zingers (did you know Aaron Burr's nickname for George Washington was "Old Muttonhead"?) and scratch your head mulling over oddities (the location of weird relics like Washington's wooden teeth, Gouverneur Morris's peg leg, etc.).
But most of all we'll give you food for thought and make you ponder new questions: Was Alexander Hamilton a Hero or a Villain? What if he had survived his duel with Burr? Would he have become President of the United States? And if he did, how would a Hamilton presidency have changed the course of American history?
