Sobre este artículo

New York: New Press, 2005. xviii, 444 pages, illustrations; 24 cm. PRESENTATION COPY. Signed by the author, with a personalized inscription. Fine DJ. A fine copy of the first printing. "It's a true story that reads like gripping fiction: in June 1942, eight German terrorists landed by submarine on the shores of Long Island and Florida with a mission to blow up major buildings and railroad hubs throughout the United States. In Time of War tells the dramatic story of how they were ultimately betrayed by one of their own, tried by a special military tribunal appointed by FDR, and zealously defended by an army colonel. Six of the eight were executed. The U.S. Supreme Court subsequently upheld the president's power to order the military trial that passed the death sentences. More than sixty years later, President George W. Bush, in the wake of the deadly 9/11 terrorist attacks, cited Roosevelt's act as precedent for imprisoning over six hundred suspected 'enemy combatants' in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and indefinitely detaining U.S. citizens suspected of terrorist activities. In a riveting account of this remarkable episode in America's history (much of it based on documents never before available), O'Donnell, one of the country's leading trial lawyers, illustrates the parallels between then and now, offering a cautionary tale of the danger of unchecked executive power in a time of crisis. / Pierce O'Donnell has been named one of the '100 Most Influential Lawyers in America' by the National Law Journal and is co-author of the bestselling Fatal Subtraction. He lives in Montecito, California. Anthony Lewis, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and former columnist for the New York Times, is James Madison Visiting Professor at Columbia University. He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts." - Publisher.. SIGNED. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 8vo. Collectible.
