This book is a rah-rah account of the life of Woodrow Wilson, 28th president of the U.S.  It is written for young people and lacks the detail and nuance of a scholarly work.  Its glosses over some controversial aspects of his presidency, such as his wife Edith's "petticoat" government during his period of disability and the dispute with the Senate over the League of Nations.

However, it does  provide some interesting details of WW's private life, health problems and rise to the pinnacle of American politics.
