To End All Wars

In his widely acclaimed To End All Wars, Thomas Knock provides an intriguing, often provocative narrative of Woodrow Wilson`s epic quest for a new world order. The account follows Wilson`s thought and diplomacy from his policy toward revolutionary Mexico, through his dramatic call for Peace without Victory in World War I, to the Senate`s rejection of the League of Nations. Throughout Knock explores the place of internationalism in American politics, sweeping away the old view that isolationism was the cause of Wilson`s failure and revealing the role of competing visions of internationalism-conservative and progressive.
