Another pop record pause resister from the New York Times best-selling creators of George Washington's Key Six and Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates. When the English fought the young United States during the Warfare of 1812, they recognized that taking the mouth area of the Mississippi River was the key to crippling their previous colony. Capturing the location of New Orleans and stopping trade up the river sounded like a simple task - New Orleans was far away from Washington, out of view and out of mind for the politicians. What the English didn't depend on was the energy of General Andrew Jackson. A formidable armed service leader with a grudge contrary to the English and a center for the normal man, he rallied the divided inhabitants of New Orleans, bringing together Frenchmen, Native People in america, freed slaves, pirates, and Kentucky woodsmen. In their now trademark fashion, Kilmeade and Yaeger will track the development of Jackson's identity and bring the listener to the displays of one of the very most pivotal - and shocking - battles in American record.
