Jon Meacham: 'American Lion'
Though his craggy face peers at us daily from the $20 bill, our seventh president, Andrew Jackson, remains somewhat enigmatic. Newsweek editor and bestselling author Jon Meacham provides new insights into Jacksons emotional and intellectual character, his personality and life. Meacham shows how Jackson transformed the presidency and presided over the birth of modern politics, gave voice to the hopes and fears of ordinary people in a restless and changing nation, and influenced some of the greatest presidents who followed him, from Lincoln to Theodore Roosevelt to FDR and Truman. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with University Book Store.
