Summary
This biographical study of Woodrow Wilson provides an overview of his career, including his years at Princeton, his governorship of New Jersey, and his historic two-term presidency. Brands covers Wilson's reluctant decision to enter World War I, and the emergence during Wilson's administration of the United States as a player on the world stage. His greatest disappointment was the failure of the League of Nations, yet he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919.
