Another MetaFilter poster pointed out this excellent resource at:
http://www.frowl.org/worstbestsellers/readers-advisory-episode-38-hamilton/
It's an extensive reading list plus a podcast with discussion. The 45 titles range from the close-in -- good bios of other Founders -- to planetary orbit -- Sarah Vowell's Lafayette and These Somewhat United States -- to the way out there but sharing in the spirit: Kate Beaton, Founding Mothers from Cokie Roberts, and MT Anderson's chilling novels re Octavian Nothing.
I suspect I could spend the rest of my lifetime following all the threads out. Hamilton is an awesome tapestry!
