Eliza Hamilton: The Extraordinary Life by Tilar J. Mazzeo

4.6/5

Tilar J. Mazzeo's biography of Eliza Schuyler Hamilton — originally published in September 2018 and reissued by Gallery Books in 2019 — makes a compelling case for Eliza's place among the unsung heroes of America's founding era, and offers a genuinely provocative central argument about the Maria Reynolds affair. Publishers Weekly called it an expertly told story certain to captivate Hamilton fans, while Kirkus Reviews found it a middling biography of a worthy subject — a split that fairly captures the book's real strengths and real limitations.
