by my amiable you know that I mean your Husband, for I love him very much and if you were as generous as the Old Romans you would lend him to me for a little while. In this letter of Jto her sister Eliza she speaks of her “love” for Hamilton. Angelica asked that Hamilton befriend French exiles fleeing to America, including Talleyrand. He sent her a copy of The Federalist Papers.
Angelica sent books to Hamilton about finances, in particular Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations. Information was exchanged on British public opinion, the French Revolution, and the state of political affairs on both sides of the Atlantic. I look forward to seeing what Susan does with her story.įor my posts on Eliza, her sister-in-law-Angelica Schuyler Church, and Hamilton’s mistress Maria Reynolds see here, here, here, and here.Ĭomments (2), CATEGORIES: Book Beat, Church, Angelica Schuyler, Hamilton, Alexander, Hamilton, Elizabeth Schuyler, Reynolds, Mariaĭuring the time ANGELICA SCHUYLER CHURCH was in England she and Hamilton, as well as Eliza, corresponded. Eliza Schuyler was the wife of Alexander Hamilton. I suspect she got her inspiration from the highly successful Broadway play Hamilton. Susan has a new book coming out in September, a historical novel called I, Eliza Hamilton. A bonus: every Sunday they present a roundup of other blog posts they find interesting. Their blog posts often feature information they have come by as a result and are always fun to read. They both pride themselves on doing extensive background research for their books. The bloggers are two women, Loretta Chase and Susan Holloway Scott the former writes historical romances and the latter historical novels and, under the pen name Isabella Bradford, historical romances. Two Nerdy History Girls is a blog I subscribe to.
