I found that the Wiki article is poorly written and sounds like the work of a 10th grader. So I turned to the book itself at Philip Dru, Administrator.
After 5 pages, I confirmed that House himself was a terrible writer who produced the usual turgid, vapid, fantastical drek the left always produces.
So what's the point of your post? That this was the archetype of a progressive administrative state that Wilson launched and we are suffering under?
I haven’t read the book but I know that “Colonel” House was considered to be the shadow president during the Wilson Administration and was the elites’ point man on the establishment of the Federal Reserve.
