Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer A. Scott Berg visits the Library Foundation's Aloud series to discuss his new book, "Wilson," about the 28th president.
From the Aloud website:
Berg clears away myths and misconceptions in this penetrating portrait of one of America's most influential yet often misunderstood presidents. This deeply emotional study reflects the whole of Wilson's life, accomplishments and failings- from designing the ill-fated League of Nations, using his trailblazing ideas that paved the way for the New Deal, to his denouement as a politician whose partisan battles left him a broken man.Jim Newton, an editor-at-large at the Los Angeles Times, will moderate.
