nor is he deserving of the scorn that his name has suffered for
so long. The paper contains a detailed overview of Burr's
political activity both before and after the Hamilton incident

"good" politician who was victimized by the propaganda of
others. The number of strong arguments cited are too
numerous to list in this abstract ! Bibliography lists 8 sources.
