Synopsis
A concise treatment of presidential power by a brilliant writer is once again made available with the reissue of this book, first published in 1951. The book is brought superbly up to date by one of Rossiter's former students, Richard P. Longaker. New material covers vital events of the past twenty-five years, including the steel seizure and the dispatch of troops to Korea under Truman, civil disturbances and the Gulf of Tonkin episode under Johnson, the Pentagon Papers case, and the confrontation between Nixon and the Supreme Court.

Review
"I consider the quality of Longaker's contribution to be wholly appropriate for Rossiter's classic study. The combination of his text and notes provide the reader with a completely serviceable volume, of descriptive and analytical excellence, on the roles of the President and the Supreme Court in military affairs. The writing is fluent, logical, and clear, and the organization is sound."
--Louis W. Koenig, Professor of Government, New York UniversitySynopsis
An updated edition of Rossiter's 1951 assessment of the quality and extent of the Supreme Court's interpretation of and control over the President's wartime powers, with new sections on important events and issues of the past twenty-five years.
