In the traditions of Truman, John Adams, and Team of Competitors, the Pulitzer Prize and National Reserve Award-winning biographer of Charles Lindbergh, Maxwell Perkins, and Samuel Goldwyn sheds new light on a leader and his presidency in a way that redefines our knowledge of a tide-turning historical minute. 100 years after his inauguration, Woodrow Wilson still stands as one of the most influential results of the 20th hundred years, and one of the most enigmatic. And now, after greater than a decade of research and writing, Pulitzer Prize-winning publisher A. Scott Berg has completed Wilson - the most personal and penetrating biography ever before written about the 28th Leader. In addition to the thousands of documents in the Wilson Archives, Berg was the first biographer to get usage of two recently discovered caches of paperwork belonging to those close to Wilson. Out of this material, Berg was able to add countless details - even several anonymous occurrences - that fill in missing bits of Wilson's identity and cast new light on his lifetime. Through the scholar-President who ushered the united states through its first great world battle to the person of intense interest and turbulence, from the idealist motivated to make the world "safe for democracy" to the stroke-crippled leader whose incapacity and the subterfuges around it were among the list of century's greatest secrets, the effect is an close portrait written with a particularly contemporary perspective - a e book at once magisterial and deeply mental about the whole of Wilson's life, accomplishments, and failings. That is not simply Wilson the icon - but Wilson the person.
