Title: Hamilton: The Revolution

Author: Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jeremy McCarter

Series or standalone: standalone

Publication year: 2016

Genres: nonfiction, history, theatre, biography, play

Blurb: Lin-Manuel Miranda’s groundbreaking musical Hamilton is as revolutionary as its subject - the poor kid from the Caribbean who fought the British, defended the Constitution, and helped to found the United States. Fusing hiphop, pop, R&B, and the best traditions of theatre, this once-in-a-generation show broadens the sound of Broadway, reveals the storytelling power of rap, and claims our country’s origins for a diverse new generation. Miranda and Jeremy McCarter - a cultural critic and theatre artist who was involved in the project from its earliest stages - trace its development from an improbable performance at the White House to its landmark opening night on Broadway six years later. In addition, Miranda has written more than 200 funny, revealing footnotes for his award-winning libretto, the full text of which is published here. Their account features photos by the renowned Frank Ockenfels and veteran Broadway photographer Joan Marcus, exclusive looks at notebooks and emails, interviews with Questlove, Stephen Sondheim, leading political commentators, more than forty people involved with the production, and multiple appearances by President Obama himself. This book demonstrates that America has always been renewed by the brash upstarts and brilliant outsiders, the men and women who don’t throw away their shot.

Washington's freezing aides in Valley Forge ~

Two in the front are (obviously) Laurens and Hamilton

In the background - the two leaning in the front are Tilghman and Dr McHenry, then sitting next to each other are Lt Col. Meade and Lt Col. Fitzgerald (with his face in his hands), and the one leaning in the back is Lt Col. Harrison

Lafayette yearns for the goulash.

When Washington would call his soldiers, did he say "pack it up skittle squad" while John and Alexander made-out in the corner as Lafayette did splits or did I just make it up

I've been obsessively reading "Alexander Hamilton" by Ron Chernow and I just wanna say...Since Washington thought he was too old to learn French, my headcanon is that Lafayette and Hamilton talked in French when they didn't want Washington to know what they're talking about...✨️gossip sessions✨️
