House, Edward Mandell
House, Edward Mandell (b. Houston, Tex., 26 July 1858; d. New York, N.Y., 28 March 1938) He entered Democratic politics in Tex. during the 1890s. He helped elect Woodrow Wilson in 1912 and became his closest advisor. He served as Wilson’s confidential envoy for difficult political negotiations in the US and on several secret missions to Europe during World War I. He accompanied Wilson to France for negotiations for the treaty of Versailles, although he opposed the journey, and differences over the treaty left their friendship strained when Wilson was disabled by a stroke.
