Ed Lamont Leads TALK OF KINGS Book Discussion at the Society of Four Arts

Ed Lamont leads a book discussion of Bill Shaffer's "THE SCANDALOUS HAMILTONS: A Gilded Age Grifter, a Founding Father's Disgraced Descendant, and a Trial at the Dawn of Tabloid Journalism" on June 27, 2023 at 5:30 pm. The event is live at the Gioconda & Joseph King Library on the Society of the Four Arts campus in Palm Beach. A virtual broadcast option is available as well.

An Alexander Hamilton heir, a beautiful female con artist, an abandoned baby, and the shocking courtroom drama that was splashed across front pages from coast to coast—this is the fascinating true story behind one of the greatest scandals of the Gilded Age, and the story that gave rise to the sensational tabloid journalism still driving so much of the news cycle in the 21st century.
