Today, my partner and I were completely delighted with this tour led by Bruce. I had read the quintessential biography of Hamilton by Ron Chernow and attended the Broadway musical, but Bruce managed to enlighten us even further with so many little know facts about both Hamilton and Washington. Bruce, despite the competition of a student band blaring in the background, kept our crowd thoroughly engrossed in his plethora of knowledge. Often he would recite from memory many pertinent and fascinating quotes. His recitation was never dry, and if I must be so self-revealing, he brought me to near tears especially while describing the lead-up to and execution of that infamous duel in which Hamilton lost his life. I also found Hamilton's relationship with Washington rather touching. Bruce shared Hamilton's words on Washington's passing which I found quite poignant. I love historical tours and usually will attend one in any city of the world, but there aren't enough superlatives to describe Bruce's tour. We will make sure to catch both of his other tours, Secret Places of Central Park and The Brooklyn Revolution tours. Thanks so much, Bruce, for a truly fascinating tour.

Margo, Thank you very much for your feedback. It is so satisfying to know that someone like you who has read Ron Chernow's biography and seen the Broadway musical, learned so many new facts...and also that these meaningful people and their stories had emotional resonance for you. I look forward to seeing you again on the Brooklyn and Central Park tours soon. Thanks again, Bruce
