Summary note
"Before Woodrow Wilson became president of the United States, he spent twenty-five years at Princeton University, first as an undergraduate, then as professor, and finally as president. His experiences at the helm of Princeton - where he enjoyed four productive years followed by four years of wrangling and intense acrimony - reveal much about the kind of man he was and how he earned a reputation as a fearless crusader. This engrossing book focuses on how Wilson's Princeton years influenced the ideas and worldview he later applied in politics. His career in the White House, W. Barksdale Maynard shows, repeated with uncanny precision his Princeton experiences."--Jacket.
