I'm thinking about buying "Andrew Jackson: American Lion" to take on Spring Break...
Has anyone read it? Would you recommend that I buy it or pass on it?

7. Ouch, baby. Very ouch... :-)
Going to a quiet beach house with the kids. I need something else to do after the kids wear me out playing on the beach. For some reason, my 45-year old body can't keep up with a 10-year old and a 14-year old.

Oy

4. It's good, and doesn't sugar coat his treatment of the Indians either.

6. Try "Traitor to his Class", about FDR. Amazing parallels in more than
just the economy. Good read and will keep you out of trouble on your break.
