Though remembered largely by history as Andrew Jackson's nephew, Andrew Jackson Donelson was himself a significant mover in nineteenth-century America as a politician, planter, diplomat, newspaper editor, and vice-presidential candidate. His relationship with his uncle and mentor defined his life, as he struggled to find the political and personal success that he wanted and his uncle thought he deserved. In Old Hickory's Nephew, the first definitive biography of this enigmatic figure, Mark R. Cheathem explores both Donelson's political contributions and his complex, tumultuous, and often-overlooked relationship with Andrew Jackson. The life of Andrew Jackson Donelson illuminates the expectations placed upon young southern men of prominent families as well as the complexities and contradictions in their lives. Cheathem awakens interest in a nearly forgotten but nonetheless intriguing figure in American history.
