Military Arrests In Time Of War (1863) - William Whiting - Bog

Military Arrests In Time Of War is a historical book written by William Whiting in 1863. The book explores the legal and constitutional issues surrounding the arrest and detention of civilians during times of war. Whiting, a lawyer and professor of law, examines the legal basis for military arrests and argues that they are necessary for the preservation of national security. He also discusses the limitations placed on military arrests by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and the role of the judiciary in reviewing the legality of such arrests. The book was written during the American Civil War, a time when military arrests were frequently used by both the Union and Confederate armies. It provides a valuable insight into the legal and political debates of the time, and remains relevant today as a discussion of the balance between national security and civil liberties.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
