1Preferably one that doesn’t bitch about “muh Indians” or make him sound like a villain. Baw was probably the second best president we had: saved us from Britain pt 2, shut down the banks (why he’s painted as a controversial historical figure), and survived a shite ton of gunshots.
Books on war of 1812 would suffice

on 2/3/21 at 3:26 pm to Bout_Dat_LyfeSeveral books by Robert Remini on Jackson, Battle of New Orleans, and the time period in America in general.
Very readable by a legit historian.
Respected and professional historian that would not be welcome in 2021 academia. He doesnt treat Jackson as Satan.

on 2/4/21 at 2:32 pm to Bout_Dat_LyfeYou may have to look in a library to find it, but Magnificent Destiny by one of my favorite western authors, Paul Wellman
It's actually a historical novel about the relationship between Jackson and Sam Houston
Just checked Amazon. The used hardback is reasonably priced, but the new paperback is $768!!!

on 2/12/21 at 8:10 pm to Bout_Dat_LyfeThe single volume one by Remini is outstanding if you want to read about his whole life. I believe American Lion focuses more on his presidency. His earlier life was awesome too.

on 3/1/21 at 9:41 am to Bout_Dat_LyfeNot just one book but Robert Remini's trilogy is probably still the definitive bio. I read the first two books years back; not sure why I never got to the third.
Checking his Wikipedia, I see that Remini wrote a one-volume abridgement of the three volume set in 1988. The Life of Andrew Jackson if you can find it.
