A Being So Gentle: The Frontier Love Story of Rachel and Andrew Jackson
of Patricia Brady
Description
The forty-year love affair between Rachel and Andrew Jackson parallels a tumultuous period in American history. Andrew Jackson was at the forefront of the American revolutionâbut he never could have made it without the support of his wife. Beautiful, charismatic, and generous, Rachel Jackson had the courage to go against the mores of her times in the name of love. As the wife of a great general in wartime, she often found herself running their plantation alone and, a true heroine, she took in and raised children orphaned by the war. Like many great love stories, this one ends tragically when Rachel dies only a few weeks after Andrew is elected president. He moved into the White House alone and never remarried. Andrew and Rachel Jacksonâs devotion to one another is inspiring, and here, in Patricia Bradyâs vivid prose, their story of love and loss comes to life for the first time.
