Woodrow Wilson's presidency marked a seminal period in American history. Wilson's progressive reforms laid the foundation for FDR's New Deal and ushered the nation into its modern era. In foreign policy, his philosophy and the programs he implemented have influenced the United States' relationship with the rest of the world throughout the 20th-century. An extremely controversial president in his time, Wilson has grown in stature in the intervening years, though some remain critical of the direction in which he steered the United States. Complementing the 69-volume ^IPapers of Woodrow Wilson^R, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the secondary literature on Wilson.
The complexity of Wilson's personality and the intricacies of his thought have become evident with the publication of each volume of his papers, compelling scholars to reassess the often polemical portrayals of his presidency. This bibliography provides access to the literature on one of the most fascinating individuals to occupy the White House.
