She was shocked to find the depth of ideas in his work, which contrasted with the usual superficial “tax revolt” idea of the American Revolution. In 1977 she co-edited a book of writings on the economics of the American Revolution (The Political Economy of the American Revolution, available on Amazon), in which major excerpts from Hamilton’s major financial papers were featured.
After a career in political journalism, Nancy turned back to studying Hamilton’s American System. In 2017 she set up the blog https://americansystemnow, which serves as a resource on the history of the American System, and comments on current events in that light.
Delighted to find the surge of interest in Hamilton as a result of the musical, she rushed to produce this book.
Nancy has deep New England and Revolutionary roots. She was born in Portland, Maine in 1943, of parents who both were descended from American patriots. She is a member of the DAR and of the Alexander Hamilton Awareness Society. She and her husband Ed live in northern Virginia, where they both indulge in as much history as possible.
