The War Powers Of The President, And The Legislative Powers Of Congress In Relation To Rebellion, Treason And Slavery is a book written by William Whiting in 1862. The book is an analysis of the powers of the President and the Congress in relation to the issues of rebellion, treason, and slavery during the American Civil War. The author argues that the President has the power to use military force to suppress rebellion and to emancipate slaves, while Congress has the power to declare war, raise and support armies, and regulate commerce. Whiting also discusses the limits of these powers and the legal and constitutional implications of their use. The book provides a historical perspective on the legal and political issues surrounding the Civil War and is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of American law and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
