Best Andrew Jackson biography

I've been teaching him for twenty years, but to seventh graders. He's easily one of the most interesting people in American History. I want some obscure, low down stuff. I'm about to grab the Good, Evil, and the Presidency dvd set. Which book lays the most out there but is balanced?

He's the only POTUS to make America debt free...the banks hated him for that

They made a movie about him.
Was delightful.
Was a good educational film with lots of deep insight into the historical aspect of him, his presidency and the impact he left on currency.
It's called Dead Presidents staring Lorenze Tate.

Are we just going to overlook the whole Native American thing?

Are you going to forget that any president would have done the same thing to the American Indians at that time!

So we're going to let one event define a president. Do you remember Reagan mostly for Iran-Contra?

Few people know about that political struggle, the rothschilds were pissed at him, they funded both sides of the civil war...

American lion would be a good place to start
Andrew Jackson vs Henry Clay is another good book that shows his political dealings

Magnificent Destiny, a historical novel about the friendship of Jackson and Sam Houston

Don't believe the hype, in another thread it was inferred that I wear a tinfoil hat for not believing things I did not see or hear.

That illustration is glorious!

Considering that the Indians were terrorist of the early colonies and later on, I would say that they probably felt different about Indians than we do today.

I'm Cherokee. I don't blame him, he had a vision for the country that didn't include us. He gave us options, would have helped us find a place to give us time to learn to better adapt to the white man's ways and just maybe build a place strong enough to stand against the random settler incursions. We didn't take him up on it. Nobody really to blame but us.
BTW...wasn't Jackson who put them on the trail of tears, it was Van Buren.
