Adams vs. Jackson

by Eugene M. Wait

Overview

Wait has spent several decades as an independent researcher and writer of American history. In the preface to this text, he states, "I write all that is important and also that which is interesting. I have written on other historical topics from the caveman to Truman..." Here he applies his enthusiasm for the field of history to a study of Adams and Jackson, reporting his investigation in a text that is somewhat lacking in traditional academic structure. His main thesis regarding Adams versus Jackson is not clearly delineated, nor are the connections among the 28 chapters made completely clear. Annotation c.
