Bag om Martin Van Buren: A Life From Beginning to End

Martin Van BurenMartin Van Buren, the eighth president of the United States, was the first president who was born an American and not a British citizen, a change in demographic which reflects his modern influence upon the office he held. His rise to political power began in the humble setting of Kinderhook, New York, where he was born to Dutch parents who ran a tavern frequented by the Empire State's political elite, including Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. Inside you will read about...✓ An American is Born ✓ The Little Magician ✓ Van Buren Enters the National Stage ✓ President Jackson's Right-Hand Man ✓ Van Buren's Turn ✓ In and Out of the White House ✓ The Legacy of the Little Magician And much more! From his earliest involvement in government, Van Buren was committed to the nurturing of political parties as a way to deliver the most effective leadership to the American people. He was a loyal supporter of President Andrew Jackson, but when Van Buren took office, he inherited the financial crisis that Jackson's policies had helped to create. The Panic of 1837 brought the economic prosperity of the country to a screeching halt and ultimately, Van Buren, who was not re-elected for a second term, paid the price. Whatever his failings as a president, he was a pre-eminent politician, and when the story of America is told, Van Buren's contribution to the political process must be highly ranked.
