Language: English. Brand new Book. When Andrew Jackson was sworn in as President of the United States, he had come directly from his wife's funeral. His beloved Rachel had passed on Christmas Eve. Now a grieving widower with decades of public service behind him, he wished nothing more than to retire by his wife's grave until the wet earth would welcome him beside her.But thirty years before the Civil War, the southern states were preparing the road to secession. In Jackson's eyes, they were committing treason and none but he was strong enough to hold the nation together.Amid these crises of politics and spirit, Jackson is lost in a mountain storm and trapped across a flooded river, in a small Appalachian town. There, with a week's growth of beard and no Presidential finery, he enjoys his first taste of anonymity in forty years. As "Jack Andrews," he falls in love with Julie Spring, a beautiful, Kentucky widow with a young son, and finds his spirit renewed. Likewise, resigned to a life of toil and loneliness after the loss of her husband, Julie sees hope in the tall, charismatic and commanding figure whom she does not know is the hero of New Orleans, and President of the United States. Unfortunately, a last chance at happiness for both Julia Spring and Andrew Jackson, will be set directly against the President's ability to save a young Union from Civil War. In a blending of history and fiction, "A Full Measure of Happiness" reads like a novel of its time, dramatic, romantic and exciting.Kenny Golde is the author of two fiction novels, "A Full Measure of Happiness" and "Apollo Main," the story of a rebellion fought for the independence of the Lunar Colony. His non-fiction book, "The Do-It-Yourself Bailout," a guide to negotiating credit card debt settlement directly with your lenders, was published in 2013 by Barricade Books.He is also a professional screenwriter, with movies to his credit, including "Walking with the Enemy," a WWII drama featuring Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley, and an adaptation of the classic, Isaac Asimov Sci-Fi love story "The End of Eternity" for 21st Century Fox.
