Woodrow Wilson : The Man, His Times and His

Reelected because "he kept us out of war, " President Wilson went to war "to make the world safe for democracy." A man of Calvinist fervor, intellectual conceit, obstinacy and naivete, he ultimately assisted British imperialism, French chauvinism and Japanese nationalism. If a single person would need to be blamed for the human sufferings in the twentieth century, Wilson would probably top the list. This is his story.
