A controversial challenge to the works of Ron Chernow and David McCullough With Fallen Founder , Nancy Isenberg plumbs rare and obscure sources to shed new light on everyone�s favorite founding villain. The Aaron Burr whom we meet through Isenberg�s eye-opening biography is a feminist, an Enlightenment figure on par with Jefferson, a patriot, and�most importantly�a man with powerful enemies in an age of vitriolic political fighting. Revealing the gritty reality of eighteenth-century America, Fallen Founder is the authoritative restoration of a figure who ran afoul of history and a much-needed antidote to the hagiography of the revolutionary era.
