Quote: I have the Gore Vidal "Burr: A Novel," somewhere in my hovel. It's probably a good read.
It is. Vidal speculates upon the remark Hamilton supposedly made at the dinner table that led to the duel. I won't give it away, but if he's right, it would have set anyone to shooting.
Quote: Ever visit the Hamilton/Burr feud site during your Blvd East days?
I've never been to Weehawken, but I pass Hamilton's grave at Trinity a few times each week. Burr is buried at Princeton.
I lived off Blvd East on Columbia Terrace for some time but never went to the Hamilton/Burr site. Damn. Had a pretty view of Manhattan every day, however.
