The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
Here is Andrew Jackson, "the People's President," warm-hearted Andy Jackson and all his vitality. Both text and illustrations show the two sides of his character: his strong points, his difficulties, for Genevieve Foster believes in giving to children a clear, true picture of a man's life, especially in an "initial" biography.
Boys and girls reading this story will easily understand the contribution made by Andrew Jackson to our democracy, and will not soon forget his dramatic entrance into Washington, or his loyalty to the Federal Union. They will feel, as they close the book, that they have known him personally.
