Recalling the dramatic events from July 11, 1804, this set of salt and pepper shakers reminds of us of our history and of the infamous duel between Alexander Hamilton and Vice President Aaron Burr. Both fierce patriots, the politics of the newly minted United States of America put them at constant odds with each other. Now history buffs and Hamilton: An American Musical fans alike can commemorate and contemplate the fateful conflict that took place on the banks of the Hudson River, over dinner.
