Event Details

Four daughters of wealthy General Philip Schuyler ran away to elope with rich men. But Elizabeth Schuyler married Alexander Hamilton, a penniless orphan immigrant, for love. Historian Rick Feingold will discuss the Schuyler sisters, read the love letters Hamilton sent to Eliza during their courtship, and listen to Schuyler-related music from the Hamilton Broadway musical.
