Author Ryan Starrett examines nine lives who played critical roles at the Battle of New Orleans. Andrew Jackson. Edward Pakenham. Jean Laffite. Reuben Kemper. George Robert Gleig. Edward Nicolls. Arsène Lacarrière-Latour. Daniel Todd Patterson. Peter Ellis Bean. Nine men from nine different worlds traveled nine roads, all of which ended at Chalmette Battlefield, seven miles outside New Orleans. The fate of nine lives--and of a nation--would be settled over a sixteen-day period. The intricately interwoven tapestry of their stories relates the principal events of their time, from the American and Mexican Revolutions to Napoleon to the battle for the Gulf Coast, culminating in the epochal Battle of New Orleans.
