Bøger af Josephus Daniels

Explores how Woodrow Wilson, having fought against war with monumental patience, finally led the US into world conflict. He proved himself a militant fighter and strategist, and when victory came he believed that it had made possible a warless world. Wilson's fight for the League of Nations is vigorously told, as is the deep damnation of its defeat.

When Woodrow Wilson entered the White House, China and Japan were on the agenda, revolution was flaming in Mexico, and Europe was on the verge of war. With the outbreak of war in 1914, the struggle for neutrality and preparedness began. The book includes lively portraits of a young FDR, a great Bryan, a grand old Admiral Dewey, an inexplicable Lodge, and a memorable Edison.
