'Andrew Jackson: The Border Captain' by Marquis James was published by The Easton Press in 1960, and 'Andrew Jackson: Portrait of a President' by the same author was published in 1964. Editions are unstated. Condition: The books are in good shape overall. Covers show some damage like soiling and shelf-wear. Text blocks are gilded with some tarnishing and scratching. There are bookplates in the front pastedown. Pages have an occasional embossed emblem in the corner but are bright, clean, intact, and legible. Bindings are tight and sturdy. Ribbon bookmarks have creasing and fraying.

These books are great for history buffs to read and enjoy. When using them, handle with clean hands to avoid soiling the pages. Don't bend the covers too much to keep the bindings tight. To maintain them, store the books on a dry and stable shelf, away from direct sunlight which can fade the gilding. If the ribbon bookmarks get too frayed, you can replace them with new ones easily. Check the books regularly for any signs of damage and address them promptly.
