Bol Can the government suspend constitutional liberties and try American citizens before military tribunals in times of national crisis?This question has haunted America since October of 1864, when an Indiana lawyer named Lambdin P. Milligan was arrested and sentenced to hang by a military tribunal. The legal tool at the heart of that struggle was the writ of habeas corpus-a principle so foundational it is often invisible, until a crisis thrusts it into the light.The Great Writ: A Nation's Struggle with Liberty and Power is a gripping historical and legal narrative that argues the story of habeas corpus is the story of America's enduring conflict between national security and individual liberty. Independent Researcher Kerry Khan takes readers on a journey through the nation's greatest crises, revealing a cyclical pattern of fear, executive overreach, and the judiciary's often-belated struggle to reclaim the rule of law.
