Martin Van Buren: A Short Biography by William MacDonald

This short biography is based on the author's entry in the Britannica Encyclopedia in 1911. For a concise biography, it is a well done article. It is short & to the point but scarcity of space leaves so much out of it. If one needs a quick read, this 8 page biography will do well as an introduction to Martin Van Buren who was overshadowed by his predecessor Andrew Jackson & by succeeding events.
