Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woodrow Wilson's Eloquence Not without some hesitation, I have appended to the discussion my two speeches nominating Woodrow Wilson for the presidency in 1912 and 1916. They were composed under stress, while events were transpiring in the midst of which I took such part as one does who finds himself unexpectedly involved in some glorious and scarce believable emergency. Time and succeeding occurrences have verified the accuracy of their analysis of Woodrow Wilson's character to such a degree, and the prophecy of the second speech, thought by some, at the time of its delivery, to be mere hyperbole, has been (and I believe is further to be) so remarkably fulfilled, thatthe repetition of them now may not prove uninter esting to any one who may find merit in the ensuing re ections. Then, too, they are examples, or intended to be, of application of the principles herein discussed. They are genuine expressions, at any rate, of the in uence of the man whose eloquence of character, as well as of speech, I have undertaken to explain. The imperfections of the arrangement and phrase ology of the exposition, must be charged to the conditions under which it was prepared. Seeking rest, with a mind weary of human struggle, yet buoyed with the assurance that good will be the final goal of ill, my promise is kept in admiration and love of President Wilson, and in the wish that the young men of America, whom I yearned to join in arms quite as fully as I did in spirit, on their sublime crusade under his remarkable leadership, may appropriate his philosophy of life by conforming their efforts to a determination to solve their every problem correctly and to make that the secret of their eloquence.

Book excerpt: The first major biography of America’s twenty-eighth president in nearly two decades, from one of America’s foremost Woodrow Wilson scholars. A Democrat who reclaimed the White House after sixteen years of Republican administrations, Wilson was a transformative president—he helped create the regulatory bodies and legislation that prefigured FDR’s New Deal and would prove central to governance through the early twenty-first century, including the Federal Reserve system and the Clayton Antitrust Act; he guided the nation through World War I; and, although his advocacy in favor of joining the League of Nations proved unsuccessful, he nonetheless established a new way of thinking about international relations that would carry America into the United Nations era. Yet Wilson also steadfastly resisted progress for civil rights, while his attorney general launched an aggressive attack on civil liberties. Even as he reminds us of the foundational scope of Wilson’s domestic policy achievements, John Milton Cooper, Jr., reshapes our understanding of the man himself: his Wilson is warm and gracious—not at all the dour puritan of popular imagination. As the president of Princeton, his encounters with the often rancorous battles of academe prepared him for state and national politics. Just two years after he was elected governor of New Jersey, Wilson, now a leader in the progressive movement, won the Democratic presidential nomination and went on to defeat Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft in one of the twentieth century’s most memorable presidential elections. Ever the professor, Wilson relied on the strength of his intellectual convictions and the power of reason to win over the American people. John Milton Cooper, Jr., gives us a vigorous, lasting record of Wilson’s life and achievements. This is a long overdue, revelatory portrait of one of our most important presidents—particularly resonant now, as another president seeks to change the way government relates to the people and regulates the economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wisdom of Woodrow Wilson: Being Selections From His Thoughts and Comments on Political, Social and Moral Questions What are the strange powers that have made of a one-time teacher of youth a supreme leader of men, a universally acclaimed champion of freedom for all the world? A well-stored mind, a pitiless logic, a retentive memory, a felicitous turn of phrase, a wisdom serene yet vibrant, a happy gift of coining aphorism containing multum in parvo, a states-manlike grasp of affairs, an eloquent tongue that never fails, an interpretation of advanced thought in an era fermenting with new ideas, a tireless energy and enormous driving force, - when one speaks of these excellent and choice qualities, one has but scratched the surface. The core of his being, his inmost soul, has not been touched upon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: From the Ivy League to the oval office, Woodrow Wilson was the only professional scholar to become a U.S. president. A professor of history and political science, Wilson became the dynamic president of Princeton University in 1902 and was one of its most prolific scholars before entering active politics. Through his labors as student, scholar, and statesman, he left a legacy of elegant writings on everything from educational reform to religion to history and politics. Woodrow Wilson: Essential Writings and Speeches of the Scholar-President collects Wilson’s most influential work, from early essays on religion to his famous “Fourteen Points” speech, which introduced the idea of the League of Nations. Among the last of the presidents to write his own speeches, Wilson left behind works which offer impressive insights into his mind and his age. Deeply religious, Wilson looked to his faith to guide his life and wrote candidly about the connection. A passionate advocate of liberal learning, he broadcast his ideas on educational reform with missionary intensity. In politics he moved from a traditional nineteenth-century conservative view of government to a progressive, international vision which transformed American politics in the new century. His writings allow us to trace the intellectual struggle that took the nation from a position of neutrality in World War I to its role as a central player on the world stage. Penetrating and eloquent, the works gathered here represent the best and the most important of Wilson’s writings that retain enduring interest. A rich repository of ideas on the American people and America’s purpose in the world, these works reveal the thoughts of one of the most acute analysts and actors in the drama of American politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Eloquence There is, however, one slight change which I have ventured to make, namely, that of dividing the book into four parts, instead of three. Perhaps it is only a matter of choice that in the enumeration of the parts of a house, the foundation is sometimes omitted, sometimes included. The latter course cer tainly appears more in accordance with our usage. Hence the Introduction of the original, which may be regarded as the most important and essential portion of all, is here made the First Part; the other Parts then follow in regular succession. This change affects only the form of the book. The sub stance continues the same as before. The time for the appearance of the bookseems opportune. A great wave of literary revival is passing over Ireland, and we are on the high-road to be a bilingual people, like the Welsh, or the Bretons, or the French Canadians. Nothing can be more just than that the Irish language - one of the most venerable relics of antiquity in the whole world, sheltered in this remote isle of the west from the revolution ary storms of society elsewhere - should be cherished and honoured. What a reproach if it should be appreciated by the most eminent scholars of Europe, and ranked by philologists as of equal importance with Sanscrit, but left by us to perish of cold neglect! Happily the Irish, spoken here from a time long before King Solomon ruled in Jerusalem or King Priam in Troy, that is, for about four thousand years, is still a living language, while Sanscrit has been dead for many centuries; and, con sidering how the Irish race everywhere pros pers under favourable circumstances, there is no reason why the language should not now, when all the world can read and write, attain to a noble literature, worthy of that fame for learning which distinguished Ireland in former days, and of the many precious old manuscriptswhich still remain, though almost unknown to us.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Eloquence: Adapted to the Pulpit and the Bar The name of the Abbe Maury hath become so distinguished, not only in France, but also in this and other countries of Europe, that his literary productions will, probably, attract a degree of attention corresponding with that, which his public character and conduct have excited. As a member of the Constituting National Assembly, it was his lot to step forward at an epoch, which will for ever remain memorable in the annals of France. In the midst of those contests and recriminations, which prevailed among the different orders of which that assembly was composed, the Abbe Maury stood forth as the champion of the Church, and of Aristocracy. His eloquence and abilities elevated him to distinguished importance amongst his brethren, while his undaunted spirit acquired fresh energy from the number, the abilities, and the attacks of his opponents: thus though repeatedly foiled, yet like an expiring hero in the field of battle he was determined not to yield, but with his latest breath.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Eloquence, Vol. 4: Lectures A E What we call in America Stump Oratory - oratory in its roughest and most familiar shape - still plays a great part - a part which hardly seems to lessen in its in uence over the people at large. To be fully satisfied, they must hear the man speak', and give themselves up to the sound of his voice. Whenever a campaign comes on, all the available vocal power is called into action, and Whoever watches the effect will see that the oratory of the campaign is a very powerful and invigorating force. In 1872 a large number Of the leading men and news papers had placed themselves in opposition to General Grant, and there were weeks during which his election seemed more than doubtful; but the campaign orator had not been at work a fortnight before you could feel the change. Not only were there words, but you had looked into the face Of the man who said them. When you read what is written, the power of the written word depends much upon your mood. When you hear a man speak, his power depends much on his mood. You natu rally lend your thoughts to him. Moreover, the rest Of your fellows in the audience do their part, and there comes on that irresistible power of human sympathy which gives you your share of the emotion of others and mingles your thoughts with theirs.

Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author, "a brilliant biography"* of the 28th president of the United States. *Doris Kearns Goodwin One hundred years after his inauguration, Woodrow Wilson still stands as one of the most influential figures of the twentieth century, and one of the most enigmatic. And now, after more than a decade of research and writing, Pulitzer Prize–winning author A. Scott Berg has completed Wilson—the most personal and penetrating biography ever written about the twenty-eighth President. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of documents in the Wilson Archives, Berg was the first biographer to gain access to two recently discovered caches of papers belonging to those close to Wilson. From this material, Berg was able to add countless details—even several unknown events—that fill in missing pieces of Wilson’s character, and cast new light on his entire life. From the visionary Princeton professor who constructed a model for higher education in America to the architect of the ill-fated League of Nations, from the devout Commander in Chief who ushered the country through its first great World War to the widower of intense passion and turbulence who wooed a second wife with hundreds of astonishing love letters, from the idealist determined to make the world “safe for democracy” to the stroke-crippled leader whose incapacity—and the subterfuges around it—were among the century’s greatest secrets, from the trailblazer whose ideas paved the way for the New Deal and the Progressive administrations that followed to the politician whose partisan battles with his opponents left him a broken man, and ultimately, a tragic figure—this is a book at once magisterial and deeply emotional about the whole of Wilson’s life, accomplishments, and failings. This is not just Wilson the icon—but Wilson the man. INCLUDES PHOTOGRAPHS
