More than a century after he dominated American politics, Woodrow Wilson still fascinates. With panoramic sweep, Christopher Cox reassesses his life and his role in the movements for racial equality and women’s suffrage. The Wilson that emerges is a man superbly unsuited to the moment when he ascended to the presidency in 1912, as the struggle for women’s voting rights in America reached the tipping point.

As Senior Associate Counsel to President Reagan in the White House, and later the fifth-ranking leader in the U.S. House of Representatives and Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Christopher Cox became thoroughly familiar with the ways of Washington. His intimate knowledge of the relationship and tensions between Congress and the executive branch is on display in this masterful new biography of Woodrow Wilson. 

Currently, Mr. Cox is a Senior Scholar in Residence at the University of California, Irvine, a Life Trustee of the University of Southern California, Chair of the Rhodes Scholarship selection committee for Southern California and the Pacific, and a member of several nonprofit and for-profit boards. He has written for Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Forbes, The Detroit News, The Denver Post, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, and dozens of other publications.
