A portrait of President Andrew Jackson (1808-1875), the 17th president of the United States (1865- 1869) who had been vice president at the time of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Though Jackson never attended school, he was apprenticed as a tailor before eventually entering politics. He is regarded by many historians as one of the worst presidents in American history, particularly because of his opposition to the giving of citizenship to former slaves, their integration into society and his unpopularity with other individuals in government.
