Samenvatting | The author draws vigorous portraits of the era's leading figures, including Woodrow Wilson, the cerebral president; Teddy Roosevelt, the saber-rattling ex-president; Henry Cabot Lodge and Robert LaFollette, bitter Senate foes, the former favoring intervention, the latter never wavering from his conviction that the war was anathema; and many others. Ellis also focuses on working people and the growing labor movement that led to vicious confrontations such as the deadly massacre at John D. Rockefeller's Ludlow mine in Colorado. |
