If Hamilton Were Here Today: American Fundamentals Applied to Modern Problems (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book argues that Alexander Hamilton, the founding father best known for his role in establishing the United States' financial system, remains a vital guide for understanding American governance. The author examines Hamilton's influence on the drafting and ratification of the Constitution, and then explores Hamilton's ongoing relevance to political thought. Drawing upon Hamilton's writings and speeches, as well as the famous *Federalist Papers*, the book advocates for a return to Hamilton's principles of representative government, checks and balances, and a strong national union. Through this lens, the author critiques modern trends towards greater centralization of power and direct democracy, emphasizing the danger of sacrificing the principles that made the American experiment successful. This powerful work reminds readers of the enduring wisdom of the founding fathers and the importance of their enduring legacy for a nation that seeks to live up to its founding ideals.
