The American Army in Germany, 1918-1923: Success against the Odds by Dean A. Nowowiejski
Nowowiejski’s new book is, in his words, “an institutional history of the United States Army in Germany after World War I” (viii). Although the author notes that the army’s Rhineland occupation was an important precedent for its much more extensive occupation duties in various nations after World War II, he does not engage the literature written by political scientists on military government or on the military’s involvement in “stability operatio…
Four new takes on Wilson, World War I, and the making of the post-war order
The books under review here, by Robert F. Hannigan, John A. Thompson, Trygve Throntveit, and Adam Tooze, offer an interpretation of Wilsonian internationalism and what happened to it in the 1920s. For Tooze and Hannigan, Wilsonianism was primarily a project to attain American predominance in the world. For Throntveit, Wilsonian internationalism constituted a pragmatic yet radical effort to end competitive power politics. Thompson disagrees with t…

The Educational Legacy of Woodrow Wilson: From College to Nation
This book is a collection of nine essays analyzing Woodrow Wilson's career as an educator and, especially, his vision of higher education and its place in American life.

Woodrow Wilson and the American Myth in Italy: Culture, Diplomacy, and War Propaganda
Woodrow Wilson, World War I, and American National Security
Eighty years after the guns of the First World War fell silent, the conflict still looms large over the historiography of American diplomacy. Indeed, the publication over the last thirty years of Arthur Link's monumental editorial effort, The Papers of Woodrow Wilson, has stimulated a new wave of scholarship about America's participation in the Great War. Nearly all recent interpretations of Wilson's leadership rightly stress the influence of the…
