Alexander Hamilton's Religion Stephen J Vicchio

This study is an analysis of the religious life of great American statesman, Alexander Hamilton. After a short biography of Hamilton's early religious life, the narrative goes on to explore Hamilton and Christianity; Hamilton's views of the Bible; Hamilton on other religions--Judaism, Catholicism, and Islam; as well as Hamilton on ethics, religious freedom, prayer, slavery, and whether Alexander Hamilton was a nationalist. As we shall see, he was extremely religious at the beginning and end of his life, but in between, not so much.
