Bernstein provides a thorough history that reveals Hamilton's status as one of the key founding fathers of the United States.Hamilton: The Energetic Founder is a brief introduction to the life, thought, work, and legacy of Alexander Hamilton (1755-1804), but it is not a traditional biography.

The epilogue considers Hamilton's legacies.The book considers Hamilton as a key founding father, focusing on his work as a politician, a constitutional thinker, and the nation's first secretary of the treasury."
