Remini (read 27 Sep 1984) (National Book Award nonfiction prize for 1984) This is the final volume of Remini's masterful biography of Jackson. It is a very pro-Jackson work, but this does not mean that the author approves of all that Jackson did. He deplores Jackson's poor appointments and his Indian removal attitude. But in general he is non-condemnatory. Jackson died June 8, 1845, having seen Polk's election and the annexation of Texas. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Available in paperback for the first time, these three volumes represent the definitive biography of Andrew Jackson. Volume One covers the role Jackson played in America's territorial expansion, bringing to life a complex character who has often been seen simply as a rough-hewn country general. Volume Two traces Jackson's senatorial career, his presidential campaigns, and his first administration as President. The third volume covers Jackson's reelection to the presidency and the weighty issues with which he was faced: the nullification crisis, the tragic removal of the Indians beyond the Mississippi River, the mounting violence throughout the country over slavery, and the tortuous efforts to win the annexation of Texas.
