Deal in the United States and the Six-Year Plan in Mexico to the
early years of World War II. Originally published 1947. A UNC Press

In this volume, Daniels tells how Wilson, having fought against war
with monumental patience, finally led this country into world
conflict. He proved himself a militant fighter and strategist, and
when victory came he believed that it had made possible a warless
world. Wilson's fight for the League of Nations is vigorously told,
as is the deep damnation of its defeat.

This volume presents a crowded story. When Wilson entered the White
House, China and Japan were on the agenda, revolution was flaming
in Mexico, and Europe was on the verge of war. With the outbreak of
war in 1914, the struggle for neutrality and preparedness began.
The book includes lively portraits of a young FDR, a great Bryan, a
grand old Admiral Dewey, and inexplicable Lodge, and a memorable
Edison.
