Synopsis
For almost two centuries, historians have had difficulty explaining the extraordinary duel in July 1804 that killed Alexander Hamilton, the nation's first secretary of the treasury, and ended Vice President Aaron Burr's political career. It was well known that Hamilton disliked Burr -- perhaps out of a protective fear of losing his own power and influence, or perhaps, according to another theory, because of jealousy over the attentions of one or more women. When Burr finally threw down his challenge, it followed more than a dozen years of difficult relations and political strife, culminating a few months earlier with Burrs defeat in the race for the governorship of New York, a defeat he attributed to Hamilton's machinations. But why a duel?In A Fatal Friendship, the distinguished political scientiest and writer Arnold Rogow demonstrates for the first time that the roots of the fatal encounter lay not in Burr's (admittedly flawed) political or private conduct, but rather in Hamilton's conflicted history and character. With his detailed archival research, his close (and unprecedented) examination of the friendship between the two heroic figures, and his bold, imaginative writing, Rogow has written a brilliant new book that will change forever our understanding of honor, politics, and friendship in the early American republic.

- w***e (226)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem received as advertised in new, perfect condition. Shrink wrapped and well packaged for shipment and delivered quickly. The book is in beautiful condition and sold at a fair price. I am very happy with this purchase. Great seller!
- t***6 (332)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem was listed as brand new. When the item arrived it was packaged in cellophane shrink wrap; however, it was definitely not in new condition as the covers had scuffs and there was writing on the first page that had been erased. The seller offered a full refund if I returned the book, and even offered free return shipping. I thank him for that. I’m not able to use that option due to a class I need this book for so this transaction gets a neutral rating.Introduction to Stellar Astrophysics: Volume 3 (#255633352002)
- i***m (476)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOverall, my experience was positive. This book was listed as New condition in shrink wrap. The book was most certainly not new - there was a sticker residue on the inside and some pages were stained. The shrink wrap was not placed on it by the publishers. Someone wrapped it in saran wrap later. The book was generally in fine condition and the packaging was sufficient - mailer with cardboard supports. Not sure why listing offers best offer choice if best offer is 1 dollar less than full price.
