The Jackson era, written by Arthur M. Schlesinger, focuses on the long-term influence of Andrew Jackson on democracy and American politics. The novel starts with a story of Jackson's life, a boy in a small class from the western part bred by a single mother. After his own economic success, he was known for his military attack, an important factor in the battle of New Orleans, and the acquisition of Florida from Spain. After a brief introduction of Jackson's lifetime, the author continues to carry out his administration, and holds the subject in the bulk of the book.

When Jackson took office as president, he was called Jackson era (M. and Nielsen 122), as he reigned politics during his term. The Jackson era celebrated the new political era. In the early stages of national affairs, the rich dominated, Jackson changed the situation by becoming the first non-nobility elected president. For this reason, Jackson appealed to the public. During his tenure, the federal government has doubled its scale, established a strong faction with top-tier professional politicians, and holds the first meeting (lecture 2/14/11). Jackson became the first president to reward his supporters in a government position known as a damages system. Jackson 's election campaign in 1828 was the first in the history of the American, and gained voter support through a specialized political organization (M. and Nelson 123). This has led to an increase in the participation of middle class and lower class to politics.

In the 20th century, Jackson was written by many admirers. Arthur Schlesinger's Jackson era (1945) described Jackson as a person who fought with inequality and high social tyranny. From the 1970's to the 1980's, Robert Remini published Jackson's biography of three volumes and then made a short amount of research. Remini painted Jackson's generally favorable portrait. He believes that Jackson 's democracy "thinks the concept of democracy to be as expanded as possible and still feasible, and therefore dynamic and dramatic events in the American history from the 19th century to the 20th century A progressive, new and fair deal, a plan for a new frontier and a wonderful society. "For Remini, Jackson is a specific example of a new American. Instead of wearing trousers and silk pants, I'm not wearing pants so I do not speak British accents. "
