REVEALING JACKSON
REVILED BY SOME HISTORIANS, JACKSON IN THE HANDS OF JON MEACHAM BECOMES A MAN OF FIERCE PATRIOTISM, COURAGE ON ONE HAND AND A BULLYING SCOUNDREL ON THE OTHER HAND. ROUGH
HEWN HE SHOULD BE RANKED AS A TOP 10 PRESIDENT.

Book is a disillusion. American Joke !
Bought the book and read it with an open mind. It is disillusion, period.
It is filled with way too much information. I could not help but think that all the information is presented to help mask all of the horrible things this president did, especially to Native Americans.
There are amy other history books, Native American oral traditions (which count as literature today), and manuscripts that shows this political figure as a tyrant who did not care for the sovereignty of Native Americans, one of the 4 core sovereignties in the American Constitution.
Andrew Jackson was a bad decision period, that the American people chose. He was not a lion. He should be called American Joke.

Boring!
Got this book as we were reading it for my book group. Could not wade through it! Way too much information.

interesting, but not compelling
Well done and full of info but delves into some details that to me were kind of dull. Mostly enjoyed.
