Book Description

Excerpt from Life and Public Services of Gen.: Andrew Jackson, Seventh President of the United States; Including the Most Important of His State Papers A large portion of the matter to be found in these pages has sheen heretofore published, in different shapes. While the writer has not hesitated to make free and liberal use of such materials as were within his mach, both the language and the arrangement have, in all cases, been so modified and changed, as to harmonize with his desire of giving to the public, a fair, candid, and impartial life, of the dis tinguished citizen and soldier whose name appears on the title-page of the volume. But little merit, therefore, is claimed on the score of originality; and if those for whom it has been prepared, are in any degree gratified by its appearance, the labor be stowed upon it will be amply rewarded.
