The Orphan Who Shaped America
Alexander Hamilton's story reads like fiction-an illegitimate orphan from the Caribbean who rose to become one of America's most influential founding fathers. Born in Nevis around 1755, his early life was marked by abandonment and tragedy. His father James Hamilton deserted the family when Alexander was just a boy, and his mother Rachel died when he was thirteen. Shortly after, his cousin and guardian committed suicide, leaving Hamilton truly orphaned. These devastating experiences instilled in him a profound sense that life was unfair and that he could rely only on himself. Despite these hardships, Hamilton's brilliance shone through. While working as a clerk at a trading firm in St. Croix, he gained invaluable experience in global commerce. When a hurricane devastated the island in 1772, Hamilton wrote such an eloquent account that local businessmen created a fund to send the brilliant youth to North America for education. His arrival coincided perfectly with the revolutionary ferment brewing in the colonies-a crucible that would transform this Caribbean outsider into an American founding father.
