Teaching Andrew Jackson and Jacksonian America is an exciting challenge.
These important years in our national history include the Revolutionary War, the Constitution, the War of 1812, the Era of Good Feelings, the rapid expansion of slavery, Indian Removal and the first threats of secession. Andrew Jackson, his family and his enslaved people occupy an intersection that allows us to explore all aspects of life in the United States from 1767-1845.
