内容简介:
The first major biography of America’s twenty-eighth president
in nearly two decades, from one of America’s foremost Woodrow
Wilson scholars.
A Democrat who reclaimed the White House after sixteen years of
Republican administrations, Wilson was a transformative
president—he helped create the regulatory bodies and legislation
that prefigured FDR’s New Deal and would prove central to
governance through the early twenty-first century, including the
Federal Reserve system and the Clayton Antitrust Act; he guided the
nation through World War I; and, although his advocacy in favor of
joining the League of Nations proved unsuccessful, he nonetheless
established a new way of thinking about international relations
that would carry America into the United Nations era. Yet Wilson
also steadfastly resisted progress for civil rights, while his
attorney general launched an aggressive attack on civil
liberties.
Even as he reminds us of the foundational scope of Wilson’s
domestic policy achievements, John Milton Cooper, Jr., reshapes our
understanding of the man himself: his Wilson is warm and
gracious—not at all the dour puritan of popular imagination. As the
president of Princeton, his encounters with the often rancorous
battles of academe prepared him for state and national politics.
Just two years after he was elected governor of New Jersey, Wilson,
now a leader in the progressive movement, won the Democratic
presidential nomination and went on to defeat Theodore Roosevelt
and William Howard Taft in one of the twentieth century’s most
memorable presidential elections. Ever the professor, Wilson relied
on the strength of his intellectual convictions and the power of
reason to win over the American people.
John Milton Cooper, Jr., gives us a vigorous, lasting record of
Wilson’s life and achievements. This is a long overdue, revelatory
portrait of one of our most important presidents—particularly
resonant now, as another president seeks to change the way
government relates to the people and regulates the economy.

“Cooper’s much-anticipated biography finally gives Wilson his
due. The preeminent living historian of Wilson and his era, Cooper
has studied the man an his times for decades…he now presents us
with his magnum opus. The book is deeply, indeed exhaustively
researched, and beautifully, often movingly narrated. It is far and
away the best biography of the 28th president we have, and as such
it is unlikely to be surpassed.”
—Boston Globe
“Cooper’s monumental new biography seeks to revive Wilson for the
21st century—not simply to narrate a presidential life, but to
explain why he deserves our national esteem….An admiring and
engaging work of presidential revisionism…. A powerful, deeply
researched and highly readable case for keeping Wilson in the top
ranks of American presidents.”
—New York Times Book Review
“Wilson comes alive in Cooper’s insightful and important
biography…. It’s easy to see why Wilson captures many imaginations.
We still want to believe what Wilson believed: that there is a
common right, that we can find it, and that it matters most of
all.”
—Newsweek
“Cooper clearly admires his subject but is not blind to his faults.
His is a nuanced portrait of the 28th president…. It also offers
lessons for another intellectual professor-turned-president, who
combines principle with pragmatism. He, Wilson, and Teddy Roosevelt
are the only presidents to receive a Nobel Peace Prize while still
in office.”
—Cleveland Plain Dealer
“A noted Woodrow Wilson expert comprehensively examines the life
and career of America’s 28th president…. Cooper exhibits complete
command of his materials, a sure knowledge of the man and a nuanced
understanding of a presidency almost Shakespearean in its
dimensions.”
—Kirkus (Starred review)
“[O]ur leading Wilson authority…offers a comprehensive,
felicitously written biography aimed at scholars but accessible to
general readers, too…. He admires Wilson for his faith, learning,
eloquence, and executive skill while conceding that he had to learn
foreign policy on the job—yet established America as an
international player.”
—Library Journal (Starred review)
“In this spellbinding new biography, sure to take its place as the
definitive one volume life, John Milton Cooper rescues Woodrow
Wilson from historical caricature. He gives us the Progressive
champion whose New Freedom transformed the role of government and
offered later presidents—FDR and LBJ come to mind—a textbook
example of presidential persuasion and legislative mastery. Behind
Wilsonian idealism is Wilson the idealist—a man of soaring vision
and tragic blind spots, furtive charm and unbridled passions,
global ambitions and unyielding enmities. Crafted with a
scholarship and eloquence worthy of its subject, Cooper’s Wilson is
intensely moving, sometimes infuriating, and surprisingly
contemporary. Above all, it lives.”
—Richard Norton Smith, author of Patriarch: George Washington
and the New American Nation
“None of our most consequential presidents have been as elusive as
Woodrow Wilson. But in this wise and often moving work, John Milton
Cooper, Jr. takes his full measure—as scholar and orator,
personality and politician, visionary and statesman. It is a
triumph of American biography, both deeply learned and gracefully
crafted.”
—Michael Kazin, author of A Godly Hero: The Life of William
Jennings Bryan
“John Cooper’s Wilson is the triumphant product of a
dedicated life’s work. Cooper has earlier written, with insight and
authority, The Warrior and the Priest, a comparison of T.R.
and Wilson, and Breaking the Heart of the World, a study of
the making and rejection of the Treaty of Versailles. In the
process of preparing those absorbing works and going on to write
this incomparable biography, Cooper has read everything significant
that Wilson ever wrote, from love letters to political theory, and
also read everything significant that has been written about
Wilson. He has now utilized his unequalled learning in his
interpretations and evaluations of Wilson’s life, the subject of
this sprightly, authoritative, and eminently readable book.”
—John Blum, author of V Was for Victory: Politics and American
Culture During World War II
“A landmark work, the best one-volume biography ever written
about the 28th president, and political history as its
finest. With great deftness, Cooper describes and evaluates
Wilson’s personality and intellect, in ways that will surprise many
readers. He thereby illuminates the idealism and tragedy, the
insight and the blindness, of one of the monumental figures in the
nation’s history.”
—Sean Wilentz, author of The Rise of American Democracy:
Jefferson to Lincoln
“John Milton Cooper has given us a rich and thoughtful portrait of
a transformative, controversial and resonant president.
Americans who remember Woodrow Wilson as a dour scholar-president
will find a vastly more complicated and fascinating man in the
pages of Cooper's sweeping new book.” —Jon Meacham, Pulitzer
Prize-winning author of American Lion
“There is no more accomplished Woodrow Wilson scholar than
John Milton Cooper, and this magisterial, judicious, deeply
researched book—the culmination of decades of study—shows the
author at the zenith of his powers. Cooper’s book
demonstrates Wilson’s importance to our own generation, and his
powerful judgments will shape the way we view the 28th President
for a very long time.”—Michael Beschloss, author of Presidential
Courage
“Woodrow Wilson continues to intrigue—and divide—us. At once an
idealist expressing the noblest of liberal sentiments and a racist,
an intellectual and a skilled politician, a man capable of great
kindness and great vindictiveness—John Milton Cooper's masterly
biography describes him warts and all. A full and fascinating study
of the man and his turbulent times.” —Margaret MacMillan, author of
Paris 1919
“A riveting account of one of America’s most intellectually
magnetic, yet also enigmatic, presidents. John Milton Cooper Jr.
does a superb job of portraying the aspirations of Wilson’s
idealistic internationalism while at the same time detailing the
realistic pitfalls that helped undermine it. Cooper has provided a
fascinating read for those who want to understand a presidency that
helped set the tone for U.S. foreign policy in the 20th Century.” —
James A. Baker, III, 61st U.S. Secretary of State
“John Milton Cooper has written an important biography about a man
who made—and continues to make—a large difference. An
enjoyable and enlightening read.” —George P. Shultz, former
Secretary of State
“A rich and readable study by a leading historian who has made
Wilson and his times his life work. A fine combination of
sound scholarship and compelling narrative.” —James MacGregor
Burns, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Roosevelt: Soldier of
Freedom 1940-1945
“Of all the important presidents of the 20th century, Woodrow
Wilson has always been the least-known and seemed
the least-knowable. Now, John Milton Cooper, Jr., has written
a crisp clear eyed account of the life of this extraordinary but
deeply flawed leader who began his career as a dynamic far-seeing
reformer and ended it short-sighted and delusional. It
is a Shakespearean story, beautifully and sensitively told by one
of our finest historians.” —Geoffrey C. Ward, author of A
First Class Temperament: The Emergence of Franklin Delano
Roosevelt
