He's all the rage, what with the musical boosting him into the limelight. I probably will never see the play (at several hundred for a ticket), but I'm glad it saved old AH from getting banned from the ten-spot. What a dumb idea that was.
If I read Chernow's bio, I'm pretty sure I won't be able to resist skipping to the end to see how he relates the high drama of the duel with Burr.
