provided by the Internet Archive  a"When Men Grew Tall, or The Story of Andrew Jackson" by Alfred Henry Lewis is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the early life and formative experiences of Andrew Jackson, one of America's most significant presidents, highlighting his rise from humble beginnings in North Carolina to a prominent figure in American history. Central to the narrative is Jackson's character development, exploring his encounters, ambitions, and the relationships that shaped his future.  The opening of the book introduces the setting of Salisbury, North Carolina, in 1787, where young Andrew Jackson, depicted as a tall and slender youth with distinctive features described as "horse-faced," is an aspiring lawyer under the mentorship of Spruce McCay. As he prepares to leave Salisbury for new opportunities in the untamed wilderness of the west, we see his discussions with McCay, who encourages Andrew to pursue his ambitions. The narrative further sets up the relationships and dynamics between Andrew and his contemporaries, including his fellow law students, hinting at friendships and rivalries to come. This initial chapter paints a vivid picture of young Jackson's world, illuminating the challenges he faces and the traits he possesses that will guide his journey.
