Through his military exploits during the war of 1812, Jackson was nicknamed \"Old Hickory.\" His victory in the Battle of New Orleans helped launch his political career. Although Senator Jackson won the most electoral votes in the 1824 presidential election, the race was thrown in the House of Representatives where John Quincy Adams prevailed. Four years later he defeated Adams and became the seventh president of the United States. He was the first westerner to be elected by the common man and not the elite, and the first to be a target of a presidential assassin. With the turmoil of the times, Jackson was confronted with sectional politics, nullification threats, and the responsibility of removing Native Americans from their ancestral homes. Jackson died in 1845.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis new volume on the Andrew Jackson presidency will cover: \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEconomic development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe new Democratic Party\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative Americans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bank of the United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSectionalism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHis military career\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePersonal scandal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SAGE Publications Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54246919635288,"sku":"9781568027005","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781568027005.jpg?v=1777789821","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/andrew-jackson-5","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
