The Suspending Power And The Writ Of Habeas Corpus is a book written by James F. Johnston and published in 1862. The book explores the history and legal implications of the power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, which allows individuals to challenge their detention in court. Johnston examines the constitutional basis for the power, as well as its use during times of war and civil unrest. He argues that the power to suspend the writ is necessary to protect national security, but also cautions against its abuse. The book is a comprehensive analysis of a key legal issue during the Civil War era and remains relevant to contemporary debates about civil liberties and national security.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
