As Kelly's fascinating biography makes clear, James Burnham was one of the most influential anticommunist figures of the Cold War era. His story is for anyone who wants a better understanding of the forces behind this major ideological clash.
Alexander Hamilton is one of the most significant yet misunderstood founding fathers. Arriving in America as an impoverished immigrant at fifteen, he quickly seized opportunities in New York, emerging as a patriot, war hero, prominent lawyer, and pioneering journalist. He authored two-thirds of The Federalist Papers and served as an aide to Washington during the Revolutionary War. At just thirty-two, he became the first Secretary of the Treasury, where he audaciously established a financial system that propelled the nation into a capitalist era. His economic vision was expansive and pragmatic, earning him recognition as the founding father of American capitalism. Through his writings, including Washington's Farewell Address and influential arguments for Chief Justice John Marshall, Hamilton shaped key aspects of the American political system. As the founder of the New York Post and a prolific writer during the pamphleteering era, he also played a crucial role in American journalism. Furthermore, his candid admission of a sexual affair and subsequent blackmail attempt highlight his rare honesty and conviction, qualities that resonate as much today as they did in his time.
