A true son of the American frontier, Andrew Jackson was elected seventh President of the United States. His two terms in office were characterized by his determined character, blustery temperament, and his propensity to be at the center of bitter controversies. He used his power to the fullest extent of the law in the midst of heated debates over such diverse issues as state rights, Indian removal, and banking policies. Superbly written and meticulously documented. A beautiful leather-bound book, and very collectible. Note: We are a well-established, well-respected, ethical book dealer in business since 1991.
