Mr. Hotchkiss, who is well known through his stories for grown-ups, has chosen as the subject of his first book for boys the life of Andrew Jackson. While the facts of history are presented, the author adroitly constructed his story upon the most picturesque incidents of Jackson’s varied career. The book is therefore instructive as well as interesting.
