Brought back Memories...

Reading this biography of Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren brought back my memories and the enthusiasm of that period to change things for the better. It was an inspiring period for those of us concerned with improving opportunities of everyone in this country.

A wonderful addition to my digital liberary.

Generally, this book is a wonderful combination of political, military, and social history unlike others of that crucial period because it never loses sight of the personalities of the people who directed the fate of the war and the way those personalities influenced what they did.

Indeed very nice biographies.

This is a well written well described, listen to it and helps or understand how the Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren. The author told us how these two personalities did work for betterment of USA.

Perfect to read biographies...

This is my loving book as I am a history lovers. A readable biography on a largely forgotten presidents. I enjoyed it as part of my project to read biographies of all American presidents. I could not find a biography of Van Buren in my local library system.

necessary to listen to learn about two presidents.

Two topics about which I would like more detail about Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren efforts to build a political party and his presidency. The author says in the beginning of the book that there is not a lot of detail preserved about Van Buren and later specifies that even in Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren’s autobiography he didn't say much about party building. I have better knowledge of Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren’s life, which covers the extent of my interest in the president. If one is interested in greater detail about Van Buren's political career it will be necessary to look elsewhere.
