Fallen Founder: The Life of Aaron Burr Paperback - 2008
by Nancy Isenberg
Painting Aaron Burr as a hero of the Revolutionary War, the definitive biography overturns the myths and images many people have of him. 16 photos. 4 maps.
Summary
A controversial challenge to the works of Ron Chernow and David McCullough
With Fallen Founder , Nancy Isenberg plumbs rare and obscure sources to shed new light on everyone?s favorite founding villain. The Aaron Burr whom we meet through Isenberg?s eye-opening biography is a feminist, an Enlightenment figure on par with Jefferson, a patriot, and?most importantly?a man with powerful enemies in an age of vitriolic political fighting. Revealing the gritty reality of eighteenth-century America, Fallen Founder is the authoritative restoration of a figure who ran afoul of history and a much-needed antidote to the hagiography of the revolutionary era.
