From the publisher
From the rear cover
Few American presidents had such a dramatic and consequential tenure in office as Woodrow Wilson. He was controversial: Wilson presided over the climax of the progressive reform movement, America's involvement in the First World War, and a tumultuous Senate battle over the League of Nations. He was a man of paradox: Wilson introduced racial segregation into federal offices while helping to secure the vote for women; worried about the fate of democracy in wartime while attacking America's constitutional freedoms; and promoted self-determination for oppressed peoples while militarily intervening in other nations.
Featuring contributions from a variety of emerging and established Wilson scholars, A Companion to Woodrow Wilson is a collection of original essays exploring the life and career of this fascinating individual. Individual chapters offer interpretations of the evolution of the historiography of Wilson's career, summaries of the current state of scholarship, and suggestions for future avenues of research. A Companion to Woodrow Wilson sheds new scholarly light on a profoundly important and complex leader who is considered one of the shapers of our modern presidency.
