Wilson, Woodrow and Edith Bolling Wilson. Extensive and historic archive of family correspondence, written between the First Family and their grown daughters (the President's children with his first wife, Ellen). Included are documents and letters from the tumultuous days leading up to the declaration of war against Germany in 1917, to the jubilant period after the Armistice was signed, and finally during Pres. Wilson's tragic stroke and slow recovery in the latter part of his second term in Office. At this time, Mrs. Wilson was virtually in charge of the Executive Branch, controlling access to the President and filtering his official correspondence - a period in which she would become one of the most influential First Ladies to ever occupy the White House.
