to write about wilson in world war i was a natural sequel. ian: the other books you read about woodrow wilson for research, what were they? patricia: i started with a major one, written by a person who knew him, a famous journalist of his time. he admires woodrow wilson almost unflaggingly. he's not entirely uncritical, but it is full of anecdotes of people around at the time. i have read just about all of the books of john milton cooper. his wilson biography came out a few years into my work on this book. 2009. i started back in 2006. i think his judgment is very sound on just about everything. he is a wonderful biographer, a wonderful historian, a wonderful political historian and diplomatic histo. i would do my take and then i would look and see what john cooper said about it. we are not always on the same page but i admire his scholarship. brian: what about berg? patricia: i read that, i think it was 2013. the atmospheric, you cannot eat that book for atmospherics. it paints a wonderful picture of the man in his time. he chose to focus on

patricia: wilson never would have said that. buton was aeligious man he never tried to impose his religious beliefs on the united states and that is george w. the using god to trump founding fathers, and i don't think wilson would've done that. brian: if you saw wilson during his eight years as president, when he ever talk about god? patricia: he did it in a way a lot of presidents do, the sort of god bless america way, and god willing. but that was it. religion to him, it reminds me of jimmy kahler -- jimmy carter's faith. a sense of comfort in difficult circumstances, kind of an acre, -- an anchor. brian: when did you stop teaching at olympia? patricia: two years ago. i taught in the school of the arts, i taught nonfiction. brian: why did you quit? patricia: that is a long story. it was veryness, strange, for completely unrelated things were wiring surgery in six months. there was a lot of lying around and think about the rest of life. it started when i was 68. i came to teaching late, and i had always liked writing more than teaching. i

sometimes wilson biographies have a chapter and usually the chapters about african-american -- wilsonand african-americans, but i think it's important to see a broader than that and in terms of reconciling it, i don't think you can. you just have to say there was this and then there was this. these things coexisted in the same man. so, i mean, maybe-- there are great president polls every time cnn does a poll may have their measurements of what ingredients of greatness and wilson stock in those polls, he slipped this year-- or last year from number six to number 10 and he's usually been in the top four or five and i'm convinced it's because of the recent discussions about race and that is a discussion we need to have, but not referring to race, just how we can polarize our discussions about everything to see things in black and white, we need so much gray to discuss not just wilson, but everyone because we are just very good at putting people into categories and all good or all bad. .. but i think that it would, if we had a poll where we are measuring consequential presidents instead

that is a very grand ambition. according to wilson you couldn't be a good nationalists unless you were a good internationalist. you had to have the fate of th world on your side. they find himse inhe fight of his lif a he goes off on the speaking tour of the country, they had always worked for him in the past, and he thanks i'm going to get the people all excited about the league of nations, they will write their senators and the senate will actually have to pass this treaty, but americans didn't really feel that way. there were much more inclined by the argument which was, for a hundred plus years we've been on our own, we've thrived, we've grown prosperous, were democratic, why should we risk this for something that has not been eried so wilson comes home, h collapsed on his tour and he came he inbout a week later he had a major stroke and then he couldn't read the ratification of the treaty. the treaty is defead and the united states never joins the league of nations and wilson leaves office a defeated man. just a little ps on this

a major problem on the woodrow wilson bridge. we are talking about a closure right now. inner loop and outer loop, main lanes and local lanes on the woodrow wilson bridge right now closed because of a really big truck fire. we were showing you that smoke kind of in the distance a little bit ago. here is another live picture of that. right now, that outer loop lane, those are being pushed o on to van dorn street. been watching this the past 15 minutes or so. really, we had that black smoke in the sky. >> you could see the flashing o lighthe bridge in that last shot there. what we ca tellt this point is that there may have been a tanker truck that caught fire. at the same time, there was a rk crew underneath the bridge doing some work in a bucket. as such, the fire departmentll engines as s some fire boats from d.c. fire are responding to this scene.er s a rescue operation that seems to be under way for those workers, at the same time, trying to put this fire out and so you can expect that that response is going to keep the bridge closed to traffic for some time until they

wilson. and that turned out to be a little more pressing but maybe not in the ways he thought. wilson was a great believer in the power of rhetoric, of persuasion as a rule of noble democratic leaders and he said at 1.1 of his early essays quoted by patricia o'toole if arguments are weapons and people are the judges then things will work out. when he iran for presidentn 1912 he iran for president on a jeffersonian democratic conservative, democratic platform with individual rights, competition, government which the people participated. he spoke in kansas city, interestingly enough, and refer to two of the three times he spoke in kansas city are referred to in patricia's book in the first time he spoke he said the controls of politics control her life and they are ruled by the great bodies of

a. wilson greene. abouts more remarkable his career is, you make a decision when you become a public historian that you don't have the time to do original research and scholarship. will did it all. he had a very active scholarly career and published a number of books on the petersburg campaign, a very good book on life published by the university of virginia, and most , the university of north carolina published "a campaign of giants: the battle for petersburg." the firstle book is the firstst of -- is of three volumes that will cover the entire siege of petersburg. thanks to will for his incredible research and, i should add, will does the kind of military has three -- military history that should speak to all of us. it is not just tactics, it is not just operational, it is not just strategy. he looks at it from all aspects including civilians and african-americans. today he discusses the battle of the crater. will was mye that supervisor at the national park service back in the day in the 1980's when

a number, hundreds of belgians went to woodrow wilson, begging him for aid. in roughly 1915, you see a paper with stars & stripes. hopefully we can reproduce that sometime soon. werewe thineuropean, but ameris looked to for relief. americans were trying to release -- to raise money for groups struggling under the stress of the war internationally, particularly in areas that would be a part of the globe that is severely altered by the war, including attempts by western powers to re-create it in the image they want. it is worth noting, what are we doing militarily? before the war starts, america is ranked depending on how you make this judgment, between 17th and 20th in the world in terms of military power. far different reality from the kind of american military that we know today. in 191 they create the national security league gra, s particular american military is the tiniest one. russia is the largest. our standing in the world in terms of military concerns was not good, which led to the preparedness movement, the idea we should build up the military. teddy

here, a picture of woodrow wilson addressing his declaration of war. it is interesting because, we have not had a request for a declaration of war since world war ii. then on, we never famously nevered for the president actually requested a declaration of war. even though, it is not supposed to be reminiscent of history, in many ways, this is part of that. declaration, it talks about why was request for declaration. only in the context of german subterfuge, not in the context of mexico actually invading us. he talked about the allied cause. wilson is putting forth a request and they basically give it a couple of days later in america has no intent into the war. with that, island to take you around the corner here to demonstrate something in relation to the telegram also the larger context of war. had issued the secret telegram to the mexican government saying, if they help us out, if they help germany out of the war, they will help get land out of the more. what is ironic is that actually, the british had intercepted this message months earlier and only

so detective murphy paid a call on wilson, also a soldier here at ft.ntic relationship with joan shannon. >> where was he when this murder occurred? >> he was actually working at the time of the homicide. >> in fact, a little checking revealed it was an unassailable alibi. jeffrey wilson was innocent. of murder, that is. he was very cooperative. he revealed every lurid detail. >> back in april, they were probably meeting for sex about two times a week. and in july, and of course the murder occurred on july 23rd, at least four times a week. >> so now the deputy d.a. began to flip the idea of a love triangle motivate on its head. it seemed to west the person who had reason to kill david was not jeffrey, but joan. >> from jeffrey's point of view, he describes how she was in love with him, that she was not in love with her husband, that she didn't want to be with her husband, that she financially could not afford to leave her husband. >> wilson said he kept telling her he was only in it for the sex, didn't want to run off with her. but if secret sex was all

say quite how many years ago, but in college, i served in one summer as a research assistant at a wilson center enaworked for a professor -- and i worked for a professor, photocopying things and providing the professor with information. i have always been dedicated to the wilson center for bringing me -- allowing me as a young student to work at the center. it was a magnificent -- it is a magnificent place, the quality of the intellectuals that come here, that gather here as a young college student, i was thrilled to come to the wilson center. it was in the castle back then. it was an exciting place to come and it still is. for scholars in cold war history in particular the wilson center's work is absolutely crucial to what we do. what has been going on here for decades now in the area of cold war history is central. so thank you, thank you, for the work you have done and continue to do in this field. today i'm going to talk for maybe 35 minutes or so, i hope it won't be much more than because i'm eager to have your questions. i want to lay out for you the basic argument of my new book t

but on a more important note, in 1918, woodrow wilson ventured to capitol hill. we were in the midst of world war i. a quest to make the world safe for democracy. wilson's mission on this particular trip to congress was to ask them to ratify the women's suffrage amendment. he said it was vital to the winning of the war and essential to the spread of democracy. within a year, congress did ratify it and they sent it to the states. suffrage was important because it really changed the landscape of the first lady's role. this is a picture of suffragettes picketing president wilson outside of the white house. this was very controversial, to picket a wartime president. 60 years later, betty ford would become the first lady we know of to have been picketed outside of the white house. we will get to that later. in the first section of my book, which spans lou hoover to jacqueline kennedy, i look at how first ladies responded to women's increasing involvement in politics following the women's suffrage amendment and also how they served to solidify and stabilize families dur
