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.

Really a good overview.

The writing in this book flows very well in the wisdom that it was easy reading. The author does not delve into a lot of detail about Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren but gives enough to give one a glimpse of both's life.

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.

Good content, rough read.

The writing is solid and a good, impartial, summary of complex presidents, in complex times.

The performance sounded like the narrator didn’t take the time to read the manuscript through first before recording. Lots of mispronunciation of relatively common words, and awkward delivery.

No Ordinary audible.

This is an exceptional book that was incredibly thorough in its research. The author is by any standard one of the foremost writers of American History. Her books are factual, historical page turners of people and events that shaped who and what we as a Nation are today. His Team of Rivals, about President Abraham Lincoln and his cabinet, is still after almost a decade in print a bestseller as is his current book.

Okay but Nothing New

I’ve listen to several books on Jackson and while this one is short, most of the information can be found elsewhere and more in depth. My biggest problem is with the narration, he obviously has no idea how to pronounce numerous words nor peoples last names. Whoever the editor was didn’t listen and dropped the ball with this one.
