Andrew Jackson (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781523796588)

In Lafayette Square, which fronts the White House at Washington, there is an equestrian statue of a very thin, long-headed old man whose most striking physical characteristics are the firm chin and lips and the bristling, upright hair. The piece is not a great work of art, but it gives one a strong impression of determination, if not of pugnacity. Sculptors have not the means to represent the human eye, else this impression might have been made stronger; for Andrew Jackson whose warlike aspect is here reproduced had a glance like a hawk's.
