Abstract

The Man Who Saved the Nation
Hutchison, Keith | February 16, 1957 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on two books on statesman Alexander Hamilton. "Alexander Hamilton and the Founding of the Nation," edited by Richard B. Morris and "Alexander Hamilton in the American Tradition," by Louis M. Hacker. Hacker sees Hamilton as the savior of the Republic, both because of his part in securing the U.S. Constitution and because, almost single-handed, he established a tradition of fiscal integrity. Hamilton deserves great credit for his efforts to obtain ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
