Description: One hundred years after his inauguration, Woodrow Wilson still stands as one of the most influential figures of his century, and one of the most enigmatic.  From the scholar-president who ushered the country through its first great world war to the man of intense passion and turbulence, from the idealist determined to make the world "safe for democracy" to the stroke-crippled leader who incapacity was among the century's greatest secrets, this is an intimate portrait of the whole of Wilson's life, accomplishments, and failings.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 1123-1139).
