Download or read book Old Hickory Illustrated Edition written by John Frost and published by Nook Press. This book was released on 2018-05-27 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of the "Old Rough and Ready" series, which highlights the lives of famous individuals, inluding Daniel Webster, Napoleon, and Henry Clay, as well as the man featured here, Andrew Jackson. Jackson was seventh President of the United States, the dominant actor in American politics between Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln. Born to obscure parents and orphaned in youth, he was the first "self-made man" and the first westerner to reach the White House. He became a democratic symbol and founder of the Democratic Party. During his two-term presidency, he expanded executive powers and transformed the President's role from chief administrator to popular tribune. Included in this Illustrated Edition of Old Hickory are all nine original illustrations, rejuvenated. In June of 1812, the United States finally declared war on Great Britain. That November, a Tennessee force was ordered to the defense of New Orleans. He managed to defeat a much larger British force that included more troops, supplies, and naval forces. Jackson was also responsible for defeating some of the Native American tribes of Kentucky and Tennessee. He negotiated the purchase of most of Western Kentucky from the Indians. To this day, this section of land is known as the "Jackson Purchase." Jackson was a stern person, some say cruel, at times, with a rigid moral code and an unfailing belief in Christianity. There seems to be no record of his complaining about hunger, thirst, tiredness nor pain throughout his life. "Old Hickory," indeed.

Download or read book Hickory written by Palmer Brown and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A grandfather clock makes a lovely home for a family of mice—if you don’t mind the occasional clang. And here Hickory lives with his parents, his brother, Dickory, and his sister, Dock. But Hickory is a restless, fearless mouse, and he longs to be on the move, to breathe the sweet air and nibble on the wild strawberries of the fields. So one day in early spring, with the smells of honeysuckle and clover guiding him, he strikes out on his own. Soon he discovers that a meadow can be a lonely place, even with all its beetles and caterpillars. It’s not until Hop the grasshopper comes around that Hickory finds a true companion. Hop warns him, though, that when the days get shorter and the goldenrod begins to fade, the “song she sings will soon be done.” How Hickory and Hop confront and eventually accept the end of summer forms the core of Palmer Brown’s poignant story. Hickory is a story of friendship and love on par with Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree or E. B. White’s Charlotte’s Web. It is also a field guide to the common plants and flowers of spring, summer, and autumn, all beautifully rendered in Palmer Brown’s most colorful and joyous drawings.
