title: To End All Wars: Woodrow Wilson and the Quest for a New World Order
author:  Thomas J. Knock 
description: <b>"Winner of the Warren F. Kuehl Prize, Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations"</b><br /><br />"[This book] challenges virtually every recent historian who has tackled the subject. Knock demands that we see Wilson in a genuinely new framework and succeeds admirably."<b>---Gary J. Ostrower, <i>The American Historical Review</i></b><br /><br />"Now that humanity is possibly drawing closer to ... [a] `Federation of the World,' <i>To End All Wars</i> is an enlightening and valuable introduction to the birth of that noble vision."<b>---Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., <i>The Times Literary Supplement</i></b><br /><br />"Wilson, in his time and through his vocation, transformed the standard of legitimacy in government throughout the world. We are perhaps only beginning to see this and, with the help of Thomas Knock's important work, better understand it."<b>Senator Patrick Moynihan, author of <i>On the Law of Nations</i></b><br /><br />"A truly great book. It is simply superb in every way."<b>Senator George McGovern</b><br /><br />"A superb, sympathetic account of the intellectual and political milieu surrounding Wilson's League of Nations."<b>Thomas G. Paterson, author of <i>American Foreign Policy: A History</i></b>
