Twenty-eighth President of the United States (1913-21) whose reform legislation set the course of 20th century liberalism. Although Wilson’s second presidential campaign was largely based on his policy of neutrality with regard to the war in Europe, he nevertheless declared war when secret intelligence revealed that Germany was seeking a German-Mexican alliance against America. He later played a major role in founding the League of Nations. His address to a Joint Session of Congress on Apr 2, 1917, requesting a declaration of war on Germany is contained in a 4”x6”, 47pp book entitled, <i>The President’s War Message</i>, published by Edward J. Clode. Boldly signed on first flyleaf. Cover starting, o/w VG.</span></p>
