Martin Van Buren

Martin Van Buren was the eighth president of the United States and the first president born after the United States won its independence. He was regarded by his contemporaries as such a wily and artful politician that they dubbed him the “Little Magician” and the “Red Fox of Kinderhook.” However, these unflattering nicknames could not obscure his statesmanlike qualities or his valuable contributions to the political development of the nation. He was a political broker, pragmatic in his approach to problems and constantly concerned about winning elections. Nevertheless, he was intellectually committed to Jeffersonian democracy, and as governor of New York and president of the United States he instituted a number of farsighted economic and political reforms. These included bank deposit insurance, the independent treasury system, and a limit on labor hours. He also played a major role in the creation of the Democratic Party.

Queen Victoria

Victoria was queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and empress of India. Her reign was the longest of any monarch in British history and came to be known as the Victorian era. Queen Victoria was the official head of state not only of the United Kingdom but also of the growing worldwide British Empire, which included Canada, Australia, India, New Zealand, and large parts of Africa. As the personal embodiment of her kingdom, Victoria was eager to ensure that her country was held in high esteem throughout the world as an economically and militarily powerful state and as a model of civilization. Victoria brought to the British monarchy such 19th-century ideals as a devoted family life, earnestness, public and private respectability, and obedience to the law. During the later years of her reign, the monarchy attained a high degree of popularity among most of its subjects.

George Washington

George Washington was the first president of the United States and one of the most important leaders in United States history. His role in gaining independence for the American colonies and later in unifying them under the new U.S. federal government cannot be overestimated. Laboring against great difficulties, he created the Continental Army, which fought and won the American Revolution, out of what was little more than an armed mob. After an eight-year struggle, his design for victory brought final defeat to the British at Yorktown, Virginia, and forced Great Britain to grant independence to its overseas possession.

With victory won, Washington was the most revered man in the United States. A lesser person might have used this power to establish a military dictatorship or to become king. Washington sternly suppressed all such attempts on his behalf by his officers and continued to obey the weak and divided Continental Congress. However, he never ceased to work for the union of the states under a strong central government. He was a leading influence in persuading the states to participate in the Constitutional Convention, over which he presided, and he used his immense prestige to help gain ratification of its product, the Constitution of the United States.

Although worn out by years of service to his country, Washington reluctantly accepted the presidency of the United States. Probably no other man could have succeeded in welding the states into a lasting union. Washington fully understood the significance of his presidency. “I walk on untrodden ground,” he said. “There is scarcely any part of my conduct which may not hereafter be drawn in precedent.” During eight years in office, Washington laid down the guidelines for future presidents.

Washington lived only two years after turning over the presidency to his successor, John Adams. The famous tribute by General Henry Lee, “first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen,” accurately reflected the emotions that Washington’s death aroused. Later generations have crowned this tribute with the simple title “Father of His Country.”

Martha Washington

Martha Washington was the wife of George Washington, born in New Kent County, Virginia. The daughter of a prosperous planter, she was married at the age of 17 to one of the wealthiest planters in Virginia, Daniel Parke Custis, by whom she had four children; two of these, however, died in infancy. After Custis's death, she met George Washington whom she married on January 6, 1759. They had no children, but raised the younger two of four children left by her son, who had died. During the American Revolution, she often shared the rigors of camp life with her husband and stayed with him during the long, hard winter at Valley Forge. Later, when she was First Lady, she entertained lavishly, first in New York City, then in Philadelphia, and became known as a gracious hostess.

James Dewey Watson

James Dewey Watson was an American biochemist and Nobel laureate, who helped to determine the structure of the nucleic acid known as DNA. Born in Chicago, Watson received a Ph.D. degree from the University of Indiana in 1950 and joined the faculty of Harvard University in 1955. From 1951 to 1953 he did postgraduate research with the British biophysicist Francis Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge. Based on work done at the laboratory of the British biophysicist Maurice Wilkins, Watson and Crick worked out the double helix structure of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule, a substance that transmits the genetic characteristics from one generation to the next. Experimental proof for their model was later provided by the American biochemist Arthur Kornberg. For their work on the DNA molecule, Watson, Crick, and Wilkins shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine. In 1968 Watson became director of the Cold Springs Harbor Laboratory of Quantitative Biology, in New York State. Watson wrote The Double Helix, the story of the discovery of the structure of DNA. From 1988 to 1992, at the National Institutes of Health, Watson helped direct the Human Genome Project, an ambitious project with the goal of mapping the entire sequence of human DNA.

William III

William III, called William of Orange, was king of England from 1689 to 1702, and stadtholder of the Netherlands from 1672 to 1702, who helped form the Grand Alliance and led England in its so-called Glorious Revolution. Born on November 14, 1650, in The Hague, Holland, William was the posthumous son of William II, prince of Orange and stadtholder of the Netherlands, and Mary, eldest daughter of the English king Charles I. In 1672, after the invasion of the Netherlands by the French king Louis XIV, the leadership of Jan De Witt, grand pensionary of Holland, was repudiated, and William was elected stadtholder, captain-general, and admiral. William fought the French with great resolution, even cutting dikes around Amsterdam to flood the surrounding countryside and halt the advancing French armies. The Dutch suffered severe reverses in subsequent battles. As a result of William's superior diplomacy, however, which also included the strengthening of ties with England by his marriage to the English princess Mary, Louis XIV agreed to terminate the war on terms favorable to the Dutch.

After the accession of James II there was fear in England that the king's policies were directed toward restoring the power of the Roman Catholic church. In July 1688, James's principal opponents secretly invited William, who was Europe's leading Protestant statesman, to bring an army of liberation to England. William and a force totaling about 15,000 men landed at Torbay on November 5, 1688. Most of the English nobility declared for William, and James fled to France. William accepted the Declaration of Rights passed by the Convention Parliament, which met on January 22, 1689, and on February 13, William and Mary were proclaimed joint sovereigns of England. Shortly after the conclusion of this Glorious Revolution, the Scottish parliament accepted the new rulers. Predominantly Catholic Ireland, however, remained loyal to the deposed king and had to be taken by force. In 1690 William led the army that defeated James and his Irish partisans at the Battle of the Boyne. William's reign continued to be marked by abortive Jacobite plots to restore James to the throne. After the death of Mary in 1694, William ruled alone.

In 1689, in pursuit of containing France, William had brought England into the League of Augsburg, thereafter known as the Grand Alliance. For the next eight years he was embroiled in wars on the Continent. He managed by skillful diplomacy to hold the alliance together and, under the terms of the Treaty of Ryswick, Louis XIV of France surrendered much of the territory he had won and recognized William as England's rightful king.

At home William manifested virtually none of the acumen he displayed in foreign affairs. Although he was liberal in some things, it was not he but Parliament, to which he was often opposed, that brought about the reforms effected during his reign, such as the passing of the Bill of Rights, the establishment of the Bank of England, the introduction of ministerial responsibility in government, and the encouragement of a free press.

In 1701 William headed the second Grand Alliance, which became involved in the so-called War of the Spanish Succession. He died on March 19, 1702, before he could take an active part in the struggle. His wife's sister, Queen Anne, succeeded to the throne.

William IV

William IV was king of Great Britain and Ireland from 1830 to 1837) and king of Hannover from 1830 to 1837, during whose reign the first Reform Bill was passed.

William was born August 21, 1765, in London. The third son of King George III and younger brother of George IV, he entered the British navy in 1779, remaining in its service until 1787. He was made duke of Clarence in 1789. About 1791 he formed a liaison with the Irish actor Dorothea Jordon, by whom he subsequently had ten children. In 1818, after he unexpectedly came into the line of succession to the throne, he married a German princess, Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen, by whom he had two daughters, both of whom died in infancy. He became king in 1830, succeeding his brother.

Warmhearted and well intentioned but rather eccentric, William had virtually no political judgment. The major event of his reign was the passage of the Reform Bill of 1832, which he was persuaded to support by his prime minister, Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey; it was enacted after William finally agreed to create, if necessary, a sufficient number of new peers to overcome the majority opposed to the bill in the House of Lords. The abolition of colonial slavery, the reform of the poor laws, and the Municipal Reform Act followed the 1832 reform of Parliament. William was the last British ruler to try to force parliamentary acceptance of an unpopular ministry, namely the one headed by Sir Robert Peel in 1834-35. William was succeeded to the British throne by his niece Victoria. The throne of Hannover was inherited by his brother Ernest Augustus.

William Almon Wheeler

William Almon Wheeler was the 19th vice president of the United States, born in Malone, New York, and educated at the University of Vermont. He was admitted to the bar in 1845 and was a member of the New York legislature from 1850 to 1859. From 1861 to 1863 and from 1869 to 1877 he served in the U.S. House of Representatives. While serving in the House, Wheeler formulated an agreement to settle differences between contending political factions in a disputed 1874 Louisiana election. This so-called Wheeler Compromise prevented the breakdown of the Louisiana legislature. Wheeler was the running mate of the Republican candidate Rutherford B. Hayes in the presidential election of 1876 and was designated vice president by the Electoral Commission of 1877.

William II

William II, whose full name was Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albert, was the emperor of Germany and king of Prussia from 1888 to 191. His policies helped bring about World War I. William, also known as Kaiser Wilhelm, was born in Berlin and educated at the University of Bonn. He was the son of Prince Frederick William, later German emperor as Frederick III, and Victoria Adelaide Mary Louise, eldest daughter of Queen Victoria of Britain. In 1881, after a period of military service, he was married to Augusta Victoria, princess of Schleswig-Holstein. He became emperor in 1888 upon the death of his father, who had reigned for only three months.

William II's first major action as emperor was his dismissal in 1890 of the aged chancellor Prince Otto von Bismarck, who had been largely responsible for the growth of the German Empire under the emperor's grandfather, William I. Thereafter William II participated significantly, often decisively, in the formulation of foreign and domestic policies. His administration of internal affairs was marked by the rapid transformation of Germany from an agricultural to a major industrial state and by the accompanying development of serious problems in capital-labor relations. William was only partially successful in his attempts to curb the growth of Germany's Social Democratic Party, which ultimately became the largest political group in the empire.

The emperor believed that he ruled by divine right. Foreign affairs interested him, but his policies were contradictory and confused. He professed deep friendship for Britain but drove that country into an alliance with France and Russia by his aggressive program of colonial, commercial, and naval expansion. Similarly, his policy of friendship with Russia and support of Russian ambitions in East Asia was negated by his encouragement of Austro-Hungarian actions in the Balkans. He believed firmly in the efficacy of the Triple Alliance of Germany with Austria-Hungary and Italy as a deterrent to war. Imperial policy under his impulsive guidance severely aggravated the international frictions that culminated in World War I.

During the war William's position became increasingly that of a figurehead. Realizing his own incapacity as a military leader, he left the responsibility for military decisions increasingly to the German generals Paul von Hindenburg and Erich Ludendorff. He ignored the 1917 peace resolutions submitted by the Reichstag and urged continuation of the war. After the German offensive of 1918 failed, unrest mounted among the German armies and people, and William left his country and went to the Netherlands. He was forced to abdicate his throne on November 9, 1918. During the peace negotiations at Versailles, various representatives of the victorious Allies urged vainly that William be extradited and tried as a war criminal. He spent his remaining years in complete seclusion at Doorn Castle in the Netherlands. After the death of the former empress in 1921, William married Hermine, princess of Schönaich-Carolath. He lived to see the resurgence of German armed power; and after his death he was buried with military honors by order of Adolf Hitler.

Henry Wilson

Henry Wilson was the 18th vice president of the United States. A native of New Hampshire, Wilson served as an indentured farm laborer in his youth. Subsequently he learned shoemaking and in the late 1830s acquired ownership of a shoe factory in Natick, Massachusetts. In 1840 he was elected to the Massachusetts legislature and became a U.S. senator from Massachusetts in 1855. Having been a member of the Whig, Free-Soil, and Know-Nothing parties, he joined the newly formed Republicans in 1855. As chairman of the Senate Committee on Military Affairs during the American Civil War, Wilson played an important role in recruiting, equipping, and training Union forces. He was vice president under Ulysses S. Grant.

Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson was the 28th president of the United States, enacted significant reform legislation and led the United States during World War I. His dream of humanizing “every process of our common life” was shattered in his lifetime by the arrival of the war, but the programs he so earnestly advocated inspired the next generation of political leaders and were reflected in the New Deal of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Wilson's belief in international cooperation through an association of nations led to the creation of the League of Nations and ultimately to the United Nations. For his efforts in this direction, he was awarded the 1919 Nobel Prize for peace. More than any president before him, Wilson was responsible for increasing United States participation in world affairs.

Princess Diana

Diana, Princess of Wales, was born Diana Frances Spencer in Sandringham, Norfolk, England. She was educated at Riddlesworth Hall in Norfolk, and West Heath School in Kent.

From 1979 until 1981 Diana worked as a kindergarten teacher in London. On February 24, 1981, her engagement to Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, was announced. They were married in Saint Paul’s Cathedral in an internationally televised ceremony on July 29, 1981. The couple had two sons: Prince William Arthur Philip Louis and Prince Henry Charles Albert David.

By the late 1980s the strains in the marriage had been widely publicized, and in December 1992 a separation was announced. By that time Diana had adopted charity work as her royal duty. She withdrew from public activities for about four months in 1993 in an effort to avoid the negative publicity focused on her separation from Prince Charles.

After that, Diana actively supported many charities related to homeless and deprived children, drug abuse, and victims of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). In 1987 Diana shocked many people when she shook the hand of an AIDS patient. She was the vice president of the British Red Cross and served as a member of the International Red Cross advisory board. In August 1996 Diana and Charles were legally divorced. A year later Diana was killed in an automobile accident in Paris, France.
