In addition to thanking Lin-Manuel Miranda for giving us Broadway's smash hit HAMILTON, Americans should be grateful that he has also sparked a lively debate over which historical figures from U.S. history deserve their face on our official currency.

HAMILTON: THE REVOLUTION, co-authored by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jeremy McCarter, was released earlier this week. The book's popularity has so far matched the show's popularity itself, delighting readers around the world and selling out on Amazon. But today, Amazon has released a special offer: a free audio version of the book, widely known as the Hamiltome, with a 30-day free trial of Audible. 

The world is wide enough, after all. HAMILTON's original stars won't be going home with empty pockets after a significant profit-sharing deal.
