Woodrow Wilson As I Know Him (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781419194870)

""Woodrow Wilson As I Know Him"" is a memoir written by Joseph P. Tumulty, who served as President Wilson's private secretary from 1911 to 1921. The book provides an intimate and personal portrait of Woodrow Wilson, one of the most influential American presidents of the 20th century. Tumulty shares his firsthand experiences of Wilson's leadership style, his political philosophy, and his personal life. The book covers Wilson's presidency, including his efforts to keep the United States out of World War I, his role in the Treaty of Versailles, and his fight for the League of Nations. Tumulty also provides insights into Wilson's family life, his relationships with his wife and children, and his struggles with illness. Overall, ""Woodrow Wilson As I Know Him"" offers a unique perspective on one of America's most important leaders, as seen through the eyes of a close confidant.The contests for the delegates to the National Convention were on in full swing throughout the various states. In the early contests, particularly in the far western states, like Utah, South Dakota, North Dakota, and Montana, the Wilson candidacy, according to primary returns, began to take on the appearance of a real, robust boom. As the critical days of the Convention approached, evidences of a recession of the favourable tide to Wilson began to manifest themselves, particularly in the states of Massachusetts and Illinois, both of which swung to Clark, with New York in the offing quietly favouring Champ Clark.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
