Description
The fourth volume of Mr. Link's biography of Woodrow Wilson and history of his times covers the period from the autumn of 1915 to the spring of 1916, months of extreme domestic political controversy and recurring crises with Mexico and Germany. The book opens with Wilson's marriage and the beginnings of the preparedness debate and ends with the settlement of the Sussex crisis. These months were a time when Wilson was finding new bearings for a movement toward more advanced progressivism at home and new policies of mediation abroad. During this period Wilson's political leadership was acutely challenged, and one sees how he reestablished his control of the Democratic party in preparation for the presidential campaign of 1916.
Mr. Link's complete and thorough research in all available documents has enabled him to describe fully for the first time the negotiations of the House-Grey Memorandum and European reaction to it; the armed ship controversy; the Sussex crisis; and the crisis with Mexico that nearly led to war in 1916. Wilson's skillful negotiations leading to the recognition by the Imperial German Government of established principles of international law and the rights of neutrals are described. His almost single-handed avoidance of war with Mexico is also told.
New materials found in German, British, and French archives and manuscript collections are used, as well as new material from American sources.
