The Public Papers Of Woodrow Wilson The New Democracy Presidential Messages Addresses And Other Papers 1913 1917

This is a selection of the public communications of President Wilson to the American people. First come the public expositions of the President's policy, in his first inaugural address, some of his annual messages, and the numerous addresses to Congress which have been a feature of the administration. No President between John Adams and Wilson approached Congress in any other way than through the written messages sent by a subordinate, which were begun by President Thomas Jefferson. Some very characteristic short pieces in this volume are the letters and telegrams, sent on various occasions, such as the dedication of Cleveland's birthplace, the seventieth birthday of Edison, and greetings to the French and Russian governments.

"In these volumes will be found the diplomatic correspondence that preceded our decision to enter the war, and the subsequent statements made by Mr. Wilson to Congress and the country which resulted in our adoption of the status of belligerency."--Page xix.
