EPISODE 2 | THE HERO OF THE EUROPEAN WAR On 2 April 1917, President Woodrow Wilson went to Congress to seek permission to declare war. He was met with tumultuous applause and on 6 April 1917 America finally entered the conflict. A new drama from Martyn Wade - ENTER THE PEACE BROKER - brings America’s journey into war vividly alive. Based on first-hand accounts – diaries, letters and contemporary press coverage – it is a compelling story of duplicity and diplomatic intrigue, of colourful personalities engaged in great power politics, and of secret communications between Washington, London and Berlin set against the backdrop of war. JUNE 1915. Anti-German feeling in America is running high following the sinking of the Lusitania. At the front, the Allies are not making the progress they had hoped for. But President Wilson refuses to be drawn into the conflict - he has an election at home to think about.
