About
A timely, perceptive biography of one of the most consequential - and most controversial - presidents in American History, Woodrow Wilson.
The Moralist is a cautionary tale about moral vanity and about leadership that stray too far from political realities. It is also a tale of the enduring power of high ideals. Wilson's ideas remained at the heart of American political debate for the twentieth century. While the challenges of the twenty-first require many answers that Wilson could not have supplied, the big question that guided him - What is the right thing for a government to do? - is as relevant, and as urgent, as ever.
