Award-winning author Teri Kanefield’s biography of Alexander Hamilton for young readers is the first in the Making of America series.
The America that Alexander Hamilton knew was largely agricultural and built on slave labor. He envisioned something else: a multi-racial, urbanized, capitalistic America with a strong central government. He believed that such an America would be a land of opportunity for the poor and the newcomers. But Hamilton’s vision put him at odds with his archrivals who envisioned a pastoral America of small towns, where governments were local, states would control their own destiny, and the federal government would remain small and weak.
The disputes that arose during America’s first decades continued through American history to our present day. Over time, because of the systems Hamilton set up and the ideas he left, his vision won out. Here is the story that epitomizes the American dream—a poor immigrant who made good in America. In the end, Hamilton rose from poverty through his intelligence and ability, and did more to shape our country than any of his contemporaries.

About the Series
The Making of America series traces the constitutional history of the United States through overlapping biographies of American men and women. The debates that raged when our nation was founded have been argued ever since: How should the Constitution be interpreted? What is the meaning, and where are the limits of personal liberty? What is the proper role of the federal government? Who should be included in “we the people”? Each biography in the series tells the story of an American leader who helped shape the United States of today.

Comfy & cute! But low support
Size: X-Large, Color: Ocean Depths
This tank is super comfortable and I LOVE the color. The built-in bra is a little weird; I thought it was sewn in backwards but apparently not. It has low/medium support, bigger chested folks may not like this. Im a 36D and its right on the line for support where I can't decide about wearing this in public. I sized up and am glad I did; it fits well! Im 5'7" and 165lbs for reference.

Fantastic tank top
Size: Small, Color: Ocean Depths
This is a great tank top. I love that there is a inserted bra. I have read other reviews about the padding moving around during wash but that's really no big deal and easily put back into place. It's a super soft and well fitting shirt.

Love it!
Color: Blue Floral Sf157, Size: XX-Large
So comfortable. So pretty. I ordered the blue with white flowers. Fits perfect all the way around. So soft. Hangs long like I like it. Not too thick. The material is actually cool, not hot.

Great buy
Color: A-white Flowers Bf290, Size: Large
This shirt is so soft and comfortable. I went with a large, though my recommended size was an xl. I'm so glad that I read the other reviews and went with large, as this is the perfect size for me. Also, with the right color bra, I don't need an undershirt with this. Which is especially nice considering I wanted a nice, light spring/summer top. I also think that it could easily be dressed up or down depending on what it is paired with. Definitely worth the purchase.
