Before he was "Old Hickory" and the "People's President," Andrew
Jackson came of age in the Waxhaw region of the Carolinas during
the turmoil of the Revolutionary War. Young Andy Jackson faced
uncommon challenges as a child that would shape his historic life.
He lost his mother and two brothers to war. At age thirteen,
Jackson served as a messenger, fighting for independence, in his
local Scotch-Irish militia and lived through the region's toughest
Revolutionary battles happening all around him. Eventually
captured, he became a prisoner of war, something that would cost
him dearly. Additionally, when he refused to clean the boots of a
British officer, he was slashed with a sword. He carried those
scars the rest of his life. Join author Jennifer Hunsicker as she
recounts these exciting stories and more, giving young readers an
adventurous tale of a uniquely American childhood.
