Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans by Brian Kilmeade & Don Yaeger Book Summary

Another history pageturner from the authors of the #1 bestsellers George Washington's Secret Six and Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates.

The War of 1812 saw America threatened on every side. Encouraged by the British, Indian tribes attacked settlers in the West, while the Royal Navy terrorized the coasts. By mid-1814, President James Madison’s generals had lost control of the war in the North, losing battles in Canada. Then British troops set the White House ablaze, and a feeling of hopelessness spread across the country.

Into this dire situation stepped Major General Andrew Jackson. A native of Tennessee who had witnessed the horrors of the Revolutionary War and Indian attacks, he was glad America had finally decided to confront repeated British aggression. But he feared that President Madison’s men were overlooking the most important target of all: New Orleans.

If the British conquered New Orleans, they would control the mouth of the Mississippi River, cutting Americans off from that essential trade route and threatening the previous decade’s Louisiana Purchase. The new nation’s dreams of western expansion would be crushed before they really got off the ground.

So Jackson had to convince President Madison and his War Department to take him seriously, even though he wasn’t one of the Virginians and New Englanders who dominated the government. He had to assemble a coalition of frontier militiamen, French-speaking Louisianans,Cherokee and Choctaw Indians, freed slaves, and even some pirates. And he had to defeat the most powerful military force in the world—in the confusing terrain of the Louisiana bayous.

In short, Jackson needed a miracle. The local Ursuline nuns set to work praying for his outnumbered troops. And so the Americans, driven by patriotism and protected by prayer, began the battle that would shape our young nation’s destiny.

As they did in their two previous bestsellers, Kilmeade and Yaeger make history come alive with a riveting true story that will keep you turning the pages. You’ll finish with a new understanding of one of our greatest generals and a renewed appreciation for the brave men who fought so that America could one day stretch “from sea to shining sea.”

Glorifying a genocidal autocrat as the quintessential American? No thanks. Jackson was as mean spirited , bigoted and anti-democratic as we have ever seen in a POTUS. Find another source with more objectivity than this poorly written propaganda.

Great book, great references.. This book was thrilling, the perfect mix of fact and story telling. Thank you for a new look into American history. A special thanks to the Daily Wire for recommending this read.

Jackson saved the United States. The book is excellent, detailing how Jackson was able to save New Orleans and the nation from a British Invasion. He was able to do this by getting many different ethnic groups to unite and fight as one army. I could not put this book down!

Enjoyable. Most enjoyable read. Learned much about the War of 1812.

And They Want to Tear Down His Statue because......?. Once again a very interesting and enjoyable read for us Patriots and US history buffs. DiCaprio’s reflection on Jackson was of a man who was focused on driving out Indians and no mention of Jackson as a fearless leader as well as a humane and genuine patriot.

Andrew Jackson and the miracle of New Orleans. It was amazing something I would definitely read again

Awesome. Great book. It’s the first book I’ve bought from my iPhone and definitely not the last. I love the fact that the author cites his sources and puts a footnote which I can click on and read where the information came from. Maybe this is a normal thing with historical ebooks. I’m new at reading ebooks so I wouldn’t know. I just know that this book was great.
