What they say about it
- Discussing the book and authors“Hamilton: The Revolution by Lin-Manuel Miranda”3
The best things said about it
It's not only the book that's adapted from the musical itself which is called Hamilton the revolution that book has sold more than 100,000 copies in Just 2 months which is really kind of insane for a book that's about a musical.
And you also had Hamilton the revolution which was the book based on Hamilton the musical which itself was based on the biography by Ron Cho and this was co-authored by Lyn uel Miranda and Jeremy mcarter and it's still in the top 20 on Amazon.
Hamilton the Revolution by Lyn Manuel Miranda and Jeremy mcarter who is a um theater reporter.
No liberal books there unless you count Hamilton the Revolution by lanel Miranda I know that's history but it's a certainly a very multiracial Multicultural view of History so maybe we could count that just for a little.

Why people recommend it
Hamilton by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jeremy McCarter is a non-fiction companion book to the hit musical that explores the creation of the show alongside the original biographical work by Ron Chernow. On The Tucker Carlson Show, Ryan Salame stated that he loved the musical and shared that a colleague frequently quoted the Aaron Burr scene expressing a desire to be in the room where important decisions happen. Jennifer Szalai mentioned on The Book Review that she finished the book and found herself unable to close the door on it. Alexandra Alter, Pamela Paul, and Greg Cowles also discussed the work on various episodes of The Book Review, noting its ongoing presence on bestseller lists, its multi-racial view of history, and its impressive sales figures of over one hundred thousand copies within just two months of publication. Commentators highlighted how the volume bridges the gap between historical biography, musical theater, and a broader cultural phenomenon that continues to capture public interest years after its initial release.

“And she always used to quote that she just wanted to be in the room where it happens, which was like this Aaron Burr scene, you know, he's singing, 'I want to be in the room where it happens.'
