Overview

Woodrow Wilson's presidency coincided with the First World War and the Paris Peace conference of 1919. Both these seminal events had far reaching consequences that still haunt our world today. The First World War elevated Wilson to a world statesman and the main architect in reshaping the world map following the defeat of the Central Powers in 1918. By inheritance Wilson was from Scottish and Irish stock. His mother was born in Carlisle in north-west England. Before he became the 28th president of the U.S. Wilson spent 5 summers in the UK - mainly the Lake District which he regarded as his second home. Wilson was a profoundly emotional man, an incurable romantic, an idealist. The book places a spotlight on the above aspects of Wilson's life.
