Энэ электрон номын тухай

The classic one-volume abridgement of the National Book Award–winning biography of the 7th U.S. president, from an esteemed historian.

“A wonderful portrait, rich in detail, of a fascinating and important man and an authoritative . . . account of his role in American History.” —New York Times Book Review

Robert V. Remini’s acclaimed three-volume biography The Life of Andrew Jackson won the National Book Award on its completion in 1984. In this meticulously crafted single-volume abridgment, Remini captures the essence of the life and career of the seventh president of the United States. As president, from 1829-1837, Jackson was a significant force in the nation’s expansion, the growth of presidential power, and the transition from republicanism to democracy.

Jackson is a highly controversial figure who is undergoing historical reconsideration today. He is known as spurring the emergence of the modern American political division of Republican and Democratic parties, for the infamous Indian removal on the Trail of Tears, and for his brave victory against the British as Major General at the Battle of New Orleans.

Never an apologist, Remini portrays Jackson as a forceful, sometimes tragic, hero—a man whose strength and flaws were larger than life, a president whose conviction provided the nation with one of the most influential, colorful, and controversial administrations in our history.

“A superb condensation that incorporates the results of recent research. . . . [A] vivid biography.” —Publishers Weekly
