The real Aaron Burr, revealed!

Aaron Burr (1756-1836) is remembered for many roles -- Revolutionary War patriot, Vice President of the United States, rival and eventual killer of Alexander Hamilton, and alleged would-be traitor to his country -- but perhaps the key to unlocking the real Aaron Burr is witnessing how he conducted himself in his most unguarded moments, as a father to a daughter. In Dear Theodosia, we discover the real Aaron Burr through his correspondence with his equally brilliant and fascinating daughter, Theodosia Burr Alston. At times witty, and at other times heart-breaking, this fascinating collection reveals the true character of one of history's most controversial and intriguing figures.

This book is a collection of excerpts from The Memoirs of Aaron Burr, originally published in 1837 and compiled and edited by Burr's friend Matthew Livingston Davis (1773-1850).
