About This Book

"Civil War lawyers is a comprehensive ... look at the underappreciated role of the law -- and of lawyers -- during the United States' Civil War. Great constitutional issues were addressed by the Supreme Court, and tense courtroom dramas unfolded where individual lives were at stake. Presidents struggled with the legality of their actions, including questions on habeas corpus and military commissions that still have vital relevance today"--Jacket.
