Publisher's Synopsis

""When Men Grew Tall: Or The Story Of Andrew Jackson"" is a biographical account of the life and accomplishments of the seventh President of the United States, Andrew Jackson. Written by Alfred Henry Lewis, the book follows Jackson's journey from his humble beginnings as a young orphaned boy in the Carolinas, to his rise to power as a military leader and politician in Tennessee, and ultimately to his presidency. The book delves into Jackson's personal life, including his marriage to Rachel Donelson, his controversial military campaigns against Native American tribes, and his political battles with rivals such as John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay. It also explores Jackson's impact on American history, including his role in expanding the power of the presidency and his influence on the development of the Democratic Party.Through vivid storytelling and detailed research, Lewis paints a portrait of a complex and often controversial figure who played a pivotal role in shaping the course of American history. ""When Men Grew Tall: Or The Story Of Andrew Jackson"" is a fascinating and engaging read for anyone interested in American history, politics, or biography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
