WOODROW WILSON: Selections for Today

By

Pub Date: June 6th, 1945
Publisher: Duell, Sloan & Pearce

With no book of Wilson's in print today, and with the revival of interest in the man and in his principles, this compilation of his papers and addresses on subjects which are as applicable now as they were when written should be of value. Here is the idealism, the highminded spiritual leadership ignored once -- ironically pertinent at this time when America must participate in world affairs, whether in time of war or peace. There are speeches on the American heritage, on democracy, patrictism, freedom, on her traditions and her place in the world; on the common cause of peace -- and of course the 14 points and the League. loquent, timeless prose which carries a strong moral message.
