The years 1898-1900 saw the nation's assumption of an active international role. Wilson's reactions to the Spanish-American War and to unfolding events on the national and international scenes are documented in newspaper reports of his speeches during this period. Reluctant to see the United States embark on an imperialistic course, Wilson defended ardently the anti-imperialists' right to dissent, but concluded that America must acquire Puerto Rico and the Philipines and train them in the arduous tasks of self-government. A crystallization of Wilson's political thought is seen in his notes for a new course on constitutional government and for his projected magnum opus, \"The Philosophy of Politics.\"Equally significant are the materials that illuminate Wilson's rise to first rank among American historians: his articles, \"State Rights (1850-1860)\" and \"The Reconstruction of the Southern States,\" display his powers of generalization and interpretation and his command of clear and unaffected, yet evocative, historical prose. During this period Wilson was also maturing as a leader among the faculty at Princeton -- this aspect of his life is seen in papers relating to a statement of standards for graduate work and in a search for a new Professor of Politics which, incidentally, led him into interesting correspondences with Theodore Roosevelt. \"When a Man Comes to Himself,\" Wilson's report of his address to the Philadelphian Society of Princeton, and other papers document a significant change in his religious beliefs during these years. Other, more personal documents included in the volume are a pocket record of Wilson's bicycle trip around the British Isles in the summer of 1899 and letters to his wife during two lengthy separations.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57481545089397,"sku":"9780691046068","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780691046068.jpg?v=1786089814"},{"product_id":"the-papers-of-woodrow-wilson-volume-14-1902-1903","title":"The Papers of Woodrow Wilson, Volume 14 – 1902–1903","description":"This massive collection includes all important letters, speeches, interviews, press conferences, and public papers on Woodrow Wilson.

Volume 31 contains documents that fully illustrate that effort, particularly Wilson's unsuccessful attempt to persuade the British government to adopt the Declaration of London as the code governing maritime warfare. The documents also reveal Wilson's key role in drafting the note of December 26 to London protesting British blockade practices. Many other aspects of Wilson's activities during these months come to light: his first ill-fated efforts at mediation, the formulation of policies concerning private loans to the belligerents and the export of contraband, and the much disputed question of the transfer of German-owned ships to American registry. The Mexican question continues as a constant concern, particularly when the revolutionary forces divide and civil war breaks out. The documents illustrate in a definitive way the Presidents absolute determination to avoid interference in Mexican affairs.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57481547055477,"sku":"9780691046662","price":146.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780691046662.jpg?v=1786089816"},{"product_id":"the-papers-of-woodrow-wilson-volume-39-contents-and-index-vols-27-38-1913-1916","title":"The Papers of Woodrow Wilson, Volume 39 – Contents and Index Vols 27–38 (1913–1916)","description":"This massive collection includes all important letters, speeches, interviews, press conferences, and public papers on Woodrow Wilson.
