Andrew Jackson is best known as the president who created
"Jacksonian democracy," with its focus on manifest destiny and
laissez-faire economics. But rarely are his accomplishments as a
general highlighted. Jackson's effective use of spies in war time
and of martial law in peace time sparked a debate about the
curtailing of civil liberties in the name of national security that
continues to this day. Most of all, Jackson was a great motivator
who could, with a few carefully selected words and by his own brave
example, turn around starved, deserting troops, convincing them to
fight. With dramatic scenes of fierce battles and victories, Remini
reveals here why Jackson's bold leadership as a general led to his
election as President of the United States in 1828.
