Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans: The Battle That Shaped America's Destiny is a concise history of the Battle of New Orleans, which took place in January 1815. Jackson was involved in the battle as one of General Andrew Jackson's men, and later became his secretary. Yaeger uses this connection to weave an intricate story around Jackson's life that shows how Jackson shaped American history with his actions--including how he helped shape it into what it is today.

New Orleans was in the middle of a French colony. The American Revolution resulted in a battle which pitted American patriots and British loyalists against each other on the streets of New Orleans. This battle was not just an event that shaped America, but it also shifted the course of history by changing events like the War of 1812, The Louisiana Purchase, and Manifest Destiny.

Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States, was a man with a powerful thirst for power. He understood that the only way to get it was by beating the British at their own game—by taking their land and resources for the United States. But even he could not have imagined what would happen when he set his sights on New Orleans.

America's seventh president, Andrew Jackson, led the country in a war of national survival against British forces battling for control of New Orleans. Along with his wife, Rachel, he defeated the English at the Battle of New Orleans in January 1815 and saved America from invasion by closing off the Mississippi River to British naval attacks. His victory was one of the most significant events leading up to the United States becoming an independent nation.

In 1815, the United States of America was facing a national crisis. We were on the brink of war with Great Britain and were close to a financial crash. President Andrew Jackson saved not just the United States but also the nation's future by using his military victory at New Orleans to turn around public opinion and repair our finances.

Andrew Jackson is a famous president and military leader who is responsible for the "Miracle of New Orleans", with his leadership in victory over British forces.
