Leslie is joined by Fox News' Brian Kilmeade. The two discuss Brian's latest historical thriller, "Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans: the Battle that Shaped America's Destiny."

When the British fought the young United States during the War of 1812, they knew that taking the mouth of the Mississippi River was the key to crippling their former colony. What the British didn't count on was the power of General Andrew Jackson. He rallied the divided inhabitants of New Orleans, bringing together Frenchmen, Native Americans, freed slaves, pirates, and Kentucky woodsmen. In their now trademark fashion, Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger bring you to the scenes of one of the most pivotal—and surprising—battles in American history.
