Andrew Jackson and the Course of American Empire 1767-1821

This is the first major biography in fifty years of one of the truly charismatic presidents in our history and a folk hero in his own time. The New York Times has called Robert Remini "the foremeost Jacksonian scholar of our time," and in his research for this book Professor Remini has gone to archives here and in Europe for fresh interpretation of magisterial subject. He has built on the works of hundreds of other scholars to portray a man of many dimensions whose life summarizes the American dream - to rise from small beginnings, by chance and extraordinary ambition, to the highest office.
