As I was reading My Dear Hamilton, I couldn't help but think how much of this story was unnecessary to read. In my option I was looking more of what Eliza Hamilton did and thought of her husband Alexander Hamilton. We all know there was adultery. And Alexander Hamilton was over zealous of whatever he did. One common thread was that Hamilton was the true deal for his country. I guess I was looking for what Eliza did more to carry out her husband's dream.
Although this book is fiction I do see the similarities of the government than to the government now. Everything has a price to it. Hamilton did get wrapped up in it sadly that his life was taken by Burr.
The book did answer some questions that were left hanging. But wished it just got to the point. I actually found it interesting from the authors that there isn't much on Eliza (Elizabeth). Also common that Eliza chose to forgive her husband. Similar to Hilary Clinton to Bill. Also the book leans towards Eliza being the strong sister after all.
With hard work she honored Alexander Hamilton by finding 2 places in New York that supported low income children. Remembering that her husband was from low income and a orphan. As she focused on children, she found that connection to her husband. Also fought to get documents of Alexander's back to eventually write a bio about her husband. True or not it would be natural to see a book about A. Hamilton's life.
I give My Dear Hamilton 4 
I felt that the chapters should of been cut short. Rather than what I did, is skim to the end.
