Andrew Jackson was an American attorney, soldier, and statesman who acted as the seventh president of the U.S. from 1829 to 1837. Jackson rose to prominence as a basic in the US Army and served in both homes of Congress before being chosen to the presidency.

He belonged to the US Legislature and the US Senate from Tennessee for a brief time. After giving up, he served on the Tennessee Supreme Court as a justice from 1798 till 1804.

Throughout the Creek War of 1813 to 1814, he led forces to success in the Battle of Horseshoe Bend.
