Explore the captivating life of Andrew Jackson!

When Jackson left the White House after two presidential terms, he had achieved a rare feat: He left office with even more popularity than when he first entered it. His reputation as a strong president and a “champion of working-class democracy” has nevertheless been viewed through a more nuanced lens in recent years.

In 2016, President Barack Obama decided to replace Andrew Jackson’s visage on the front of the $20 bill with a portrait of abolitionist Harriet Tubman. Meanwhile, current President Donald Trump has repeatedly drawn parallels between himself and Jackson via his infamous Twitter account and public speeches. He even put a portrait of Jackson in the Oval Office and visited his tomb in Nashville shortly after being sworn in.

The present day is thus an apt time for a look into Jackson’s divisive life and legacy and that is what this captivating audiobook offers.

Some of the topics covered in this audiobook include:

  • The war orphan
  • The gentleman
  • The scarlet woman

Other than the over-all winning of US side at the Battles a great historical character portrayed by the author, I knew almost nothing of Andrew Jackson. This book heaves a great deal of light on a period of time in our country that lies between the American Revolution and the Civil War. The author has done all of us a public service in illustrating where we have come from and how our country has been preserved by the rare great men who have been President.

Indeed an enlightening portrait.

As usual, Captivating History’s author’s team doesn't hold back. Captivating History’s team shares the triumphs as well as the more uncertain acts or attributes of his subject and I believe that is what draws me towards his work in the first place. A must read for the America history enthusiasts.

A basic but true guide.

As told from the beginning, this book was just on his White House years. A fuller biography you have to find somewhere else. A little too histrionic in his early years as President for my liking but, I envisage, the book covered all the essential goings on. Understand the comparison to Trump. Can't see Trump as that demanding though. A good read!

He is often called, the "Father of the Country", he accomplished his presidency as if he was handling a family. He's the first president to campaign on the road and with using his own funds, and lived through an endeavored assassination. This book sheds a lot of light on who the man was, how he managed the White House, and the legacy he left to us all.

One of the best president of USA.

All in all, listening about Jackson's struggle and the threats of secession by South Carolina and other southern states, during his presidency is educational and interesting. Jackson began a new era of presidents as he was not one of the Founding Fathers but he stood his ground and unlike politicians of today, he was for the people.

Interesting, yes, it was informative. Plus, the depth of the psychological analysis was "Jackson had no children, so his relatives and the country substituted as his children." Maybe as one motivation, but that doesn't seem to tell the whole tale. I gave it 5 because you did a lot research about personal things you might necessarily have known.

A decent lion from USA.

As for those who are upset by some perceived adoration of President Jackson, I thought Captivating History’s writing style actually watered it down a little bit. Left or right, Jackson was an interesting and intense character, and if you have very hard feelings about Jackson, you should be for warned that you will need a few grains of salt.

Best and easy way to learn about AJ.

I haven't read an autobiography in a few years and I am pleased that I underway again with this copy. It was enormously entertaining and insightful and provided me new insights into the presidency as well as the man, Andrew Jackson.

Valuable, insightful and entertaining.

If you're looking for a biography on President Jackson, this book covers his life from a young child through his death. As one of the little known Presidents, I learned a lot from listening to this book. The author is not the best writer as he continuously adds his own opinion to things, and there are sections that I skimmed due to that fact.

Understanding the Man.....

A very stimulating, thought-provoking enjoyable look at a very robust minded man who supposed he knew the best way to think and act. He did some good things. He was responsible for the mass movement of the Indians out of their homelands, i.e. the trail of tears. He believed they had to go, that homesteaders would clash with them. A well written book, I could hardly put it down.

Brave Warrior,Strong Willed, Powerful.
