A propos de cet article

Original publisher's red paper wrappers with staple binding. Black lettering and illustration of Woodrow Wilson on front. One black-and-white plate showing a portrait of Wilson laid in. No date, circa 1923-1924. 4 3/4" x 6 1/2." Eighty pages, complete. Black-and-white illustrations. Pages are clean and intact overall except for dampstaining in lower corners of fore-edges and occasional smudges or stains. Covers are intact overall but have dampstaining at bottom edges and lower corners of fore-edges, separation of back cover from the staple binding, and moderate wear to extremities. A Good copy. This is a promotional booklet that emphatically supports the League of Nations and the policies of Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924) who was one of the main architects of the League. Extracts from comments made by Wilson and other contributors are printed herein. Editor Adon A. Yoder also adds his own commentary and expresses support for Wilson and his political platform and policies. For example, Yoder says that the United States' recent isolationism is dishonorable and says that the League is not an "entangling alliance." The main purpose of this pamphlet is to promote the League of Nations. There are many dedicatory sections of text to honor Wilson and other notable historical figures who are affiliated with and supported the League. Criticism is leveled at one of Wilson's opponents, Henry Cabot Lodge, the latter of whom was supportive of the United States' involvement in World War I. Overall, this pamphlet describes the League as being beneficial and a much better choice than going to war. The following is as sampling of the features in this booklet: "Dedication to Woodrow Wilson," "The League of Nations" [poem] by Alfred Tennyson, "Woodrow Wilson" [poem], "The Spirit of Woodrow Wilson" by Yoder, "We Must Redeem Ourselves," "[Theodore] Roosevelt for League in 1914," "Most Prominent Republicans Want League." Interspersed among the text are black-and-white portrait illustrations of David Lloyd George, Premier Orlando of Italy, Clemenceau of France, William Howard Taft, and Charles Evans Hughes. …
