Alexander Hamilton: Young Statesman (14) (Young Patriots series)

The adult accomplishments of this Founding Father, architect of the Constitution and first Secretary of the Treasury are legendary, andÂ in this latest offering, children meet the young "Alec" growing up in the Caribbean as he dreams of visiting the land called America. Accompanied by his parrot, Hurry-Up, and his companion, Poleon, Alec's tranquil daysÂ are filled with the books he loves and visits to the waterfront to greetÂ the large shipsÂ arriving from Europeâ€”until his uncle insists that Alec fit riding lessons into his schedule. Children will identify with Alec's struggle to overcome his fearÂ of horses and cheer at his courage as he narrowly escapes a violent hurricane while on horseback, all while keeping his eye on the prizeâ€”school in America. Featured sectionsÂ and fun factsÂ explain what happened next andÂ when Alexander Hamilton lived, providing young readers with a snapshot of the leader's entire life.
