- US historians see Jacksonian democracy as spanning nearly three decades,
182 4 to 1852, rather than just Jackson's eight-year presidency (1828-36).
There are dozens of books and articles on the era of Jacksonian democ
racy, as well as biographies of Andrew Jackson's life. Historian Robert
V. Remini is the foremost Jacksonian scholar, with multiple books; his Life
of Andrew Jackson (2010) is a short compilation of his previous work. A
revisionist view distinguished from Remini's admiring portrayal is Michael
Paul Rogin, Fathers and Children: Andrew Jackson and the Subjugation of
the American Indian (1975). Twenty-first-century works include Brands,
Andrew Jackson; Meacham, American Lion; Reynolds, Waking Giant;
and Wilentz, Andrew Jackson.
