- Summary:
- "The epic fight between Nicholas Biddle and Andrew Jackson over the fate of the Second Bank of the United States comes to vivid life in this compelling biography of political intrigue. The battle that culminated in 1837 riveted and polarized the nation. Jackson accused Biddle of treason; Biddle said the president promoted anarchy. Newly discovered Biddle correspondence alters the financier's place in history"-- Provided by publisher
