The clashes between President Abraham Lincoln and Chief Justice
Roger B. Taney over slavery, secession, and the president's
constitutional war powers went to the heart of Lincoln's
presidency. James Simon, author of the acclaimed" What Kind of
Nation," brings to vivid life the passionate struggle during the
worst crisis in the nation's history, the Civil War. The issues
that underlaid that crisis -- race, states' rights, and the
president's wartime authority -- resonate today in the nation's
political debate.
