Description

About the Author Ross A. Kennedy is Associate Professor of History at Illinois State University. He is the author of The Will to Believe: Woodrow Wilson, World War I, and America's Strategy for Peace and Security (2009). Product Description A Companion to Woodrow Wilson presents a compilation of essays contributed by various scholars in the field that cover all aspects of the life and career of America’s 28th president.Represents the only current anthology of essays to introduce readers to the scholarship on all aspects of Wilson's life and careerOffers a 'one stop' destination for anyone interested in understanding how the scholarship on Wilson has evolved and where it stands now Review "With this book Wiley-Blackwell add a notable figure to their growing library of presidential studies." (Reference Reviews, 1 June 2014)"A Companion to Woodrow Wilson shows how much can be learned from a conscientious bibliographic review. It is an impressive book that—through its best chapters—could teach valuable lessons to historians of many topics in addition to those studying Wilson." (Journal of American History, 1 March 2014) Review "This is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to examine Wilson and the issues and events he dealt with. It gives comprehensive and incisive accounts of the many and conflicting views of this man and what he wrought."—John M. Cooper, University of Wisconsin"Congratulations to Ross Kennedy for this excellent volume on Woodrow Wilson. These original essays by both senior and junior scholars summarize current historiography and add new insights on all aspects of his life and legacy. Anyone wanting to learn more about the president and his place in history should read this volume."—Lloyd Ambrosius, University of Nebraska-Lincoln"The present moment cries out for a reconsideration of Woodrow Wilson, who did so much to redefine U.S. politics and foreign policy. This volume provides a useful guide to the sprawling Wilson literature, reminding us that so many of the issues he grappled with—war, peace, taxes, regulation, race--will never go away."—Glen Gendzel, San Jose State University"This collection of essays offers an important reappraisal of the life, thought, and presidency of Woodrow Wilson. A 'must read' for students and scholars of twentieth-century U.S. and international history."—Elizabeth McKillen, University of Maine From the Inside Flap 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. From the Back 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: Wils
