From the Pulitzer and Nation­al Book Award-win­ning author A. Scott Berg comes Wil­son the result of over a decade of research and writ­ing, it is the defin­i­tive and rev­e­la­to­ry biog­ra­phy of one of the great­est and most influ­en­tial Amer­i­can fig­ures of the 20th cen­tu­ry. Wil­son first cap­tured Berg’s imag­i­na­tion at the age of 15 and has fas­ci­nat­ed him ever since. Berg was the first biog­ra­ph­er to gain access to two recent­ly-dis­cov­ered caches of papers that have only recent­ly been dis­cov­ered sig­nif­i­cant col­lec­tions of per­son­al let­ters of both Wilson’s daugh­ter and his per­son­al physi­cian. The result is an inti­mate por­trait writ­ten with a par­tic­u­lar­ly con­tem­po­rary point of view a book at once mag­is­te­r­i­al and deeply emo­tion­al about the whole of Wilson’s life, accom­plish­ments, and fail­ings. This is not just Wil­son the icon but Wil­son the man. 2013 marks the 100th anniver­sary of Wilson’s inauguration.
