About this listen

Aaron Burr. Founding Father. Vice President. And the man who shot Alexander Hamilton dead in cold blood. But that was just the beginning. In Burr: America’s First Supervillain, JJ uncovers the real story of the most dangerous man in early American history — a man who fought in the Revolution, rose to the top of the political ladder, and then tried to build an empire of his own. From his cold childhood and battlefield exploits, to the infamous duel and the treason trial of the century, this is a biography that reads like a thriller — because it is one. Forget the powdered wigs and patriotic quotes. This is about power, betrayal, and a man who would rather rule in exile than serve in silence. He aimed for the throne. He got the gallows. And America would never be the same.
