Summary: "Woodrow Wilson as I Know Him" by Joseph P. Tumulty is a historical account written in the early 20th century, focusing on the author's firsthand experiences with President Woodrow Wilson during pivotal moments in American politics. The book aims to provide insight into Wilson's character, decision-making processes, and the political landscape of the time, particularly during his rise to the governorship of New Jersey and his eventual presidency.

Tumulty candidly describes his initial skepticism toward Woodrow Wilson's candidacy for the Senate, illustrating not only his journey in politics but also the evolving perceptions and controversies surrounding Wilson as a leader, especially in the context of the traditional political machine.
