Description

A beautiful, hardcover, deckle-edged edition of Hamilton the Revolution, signed by co-author Jeremy McCarter. Book includes the libretto for Lin-Manuel Miranda's award-winning musical Hamiltonincluding 200 funny, revealing footnotes written by Miranda.


"Miranda, along with Jeremy McCarter, a cultural critic and theater artist who was involved in the project from its earliest stages -- 'since before this was even a show,' according to Miranda -- traces its development from an improbable perfor­mance at the White House to its landmark opening night on Broadway six years later.


Their account features photos by the renowned Frank Ockenfels and veteran Broadway photographer, Joan Marcus; exclusive looks at notebooks and emails; interviews with Questlove, Stephen Sond­heim, leading political commentators, and more than 50 people involved with the production; and multiple appearances by Presi­dent Obama himself. The book does more than tell the surprising story of how a Broadway musical became a national phenomenon: It demonstrates that America has always been renewed by the brash upstarts and brilliant outsiders, the men and women who don't throw away their shot."
