Description: Faces Behind the Battle of New Orleans : A Collection of Portraits and Images of Soldiers, Citizens and Politicians on Its 200th Anniversary, Paperback by Decuir, Randy, ISBN 1500837555, ISBN-13 9781500837556, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Plenty has been written about the famous Battle of New Orleans of 1815 which cemented the strength of the young United States and their defeat of the British. But something that seemed to be lacking was a modern collection of portraits and photos of the people involved in it or by it. Just about everyone knows what Andrew Jackson looked like, but what did the others look like?Thus the goal of this book was to put a face on as many of the participants as images in this collection are mostly in one of two forms: photographs in their advance age or oil was not invented until two decades after the war, so the only photos of veterans were taken until the mid or late 1800s. The wealthy citizens and soldiers were able to afford an oil painting in time for the Bicentennial of the Battle of New Orleans, portraits include:ADAIR, Gen. John Kentucky.
