Why read it?
1 author picked Vindicating Andrew Jackson as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Cole is an underappreciated historian of the Jacksonian era. Unlike Remini’s classic overview of the 1828 presidential election, which is long on narrative and short on critical analysis, Cole provides a more in-depth examination of one of the dirtiest campaigns in U.S. history.

From Mark's list on explaining Andrew Jackson.
