Andrew+Jackson

Andrew Jackson

Andrew Jackson was born in a backwoods settlement in N.C. in 1829. When he was about 14 years old, a British officer slashed his face and hand with his sword, which Jackson did not enjoy very much. (Well, who would?) This made him hate the British, which help his future Army career. He fell into a bad crowd, and fought in some duels. Then, he became a lawyer in Tennesse. He won many cases and eventually became respected. He married and lived out his life, becoming a General and the President.
