Alfred Henry Lewis' 1907 book "When Men Grew Tall: the Story of Andrew Jackson" tells the story of Andrew Jackson's career in, precisely the way Andrew Jackson himself would have delighted to tell It. It has the true Jacksonian flavor of unquenchable ardor to twist the tall of the British lion, supreme contempt for the Spanish Dons, burning antipathy to the 'corrupt bargainers' Adams and Clay—poor 'Machiavelli Clay, as Mr. Lewis persists In calling him—and unrestrained enmity for 'serpentine' Banker Biddle and the rest of the money crew. "It Is written In a virile, Intense, vehement strain that keeps the reader wide awake. As a 'story' It certainly has much to commend it, bringing out In vivid relief some of the most dramatic episodes of Jackson's life, and being distinctly human from beginning to end." --- Outlook   Less
