The Moralist by Patricia O'Toole
Woodrow Wilson and the World He Made
A nuanced portrait of Woodrow Wilson that follows his evolution from scholar and reformer to wartime leader and architect of a new international order, examining how his moral certainties drove progressive domestic reforms, shaped his conduct in World War I and the Treaty of Versailles, and inspired the push for the League of Nations—while also detailing his deep contradictions, including racial segregationist policies, authoritarian tendencies, and the impact of his health and personality on governance—ultimately arguing that his earnest idealism forged a consequential but contested legacy in American and world affairs.
