520    The clashes between President Abraham Lincoln and Chief 
       Justice Roger B. Taney over slavery, secession, and 
       Lincoln's constitutional war powers went to the heart of 
       Lincoln's presidency.Lincoln and Taney's bitter 
       disagreements began with Taney's Dred Scott opinion in 
       1857, when the Chief Justice declared that the 
       Constitution did not grant the black man any rights that 
       the white man was bound to honor. Lincoln attacked the 
       opinion as a warped judicial interperatation of the 
       Framers' intent and accused Taney of being a member of a 
       pro-slavery national conspiracy.In his first inaugural 
       address, Lincoln insisted that the South had no legal 
       right to secede. Taney, who administered the oath of 
       office to Lincoln, believed that the South's seccession 
       was legal and in the best interests of both sections of 
       the country.Once the war began, Lincoln broadly 
       interpreted his constitutional powers as commander in 
       chief to prosecute the war, suspending habeas corpus, 
       censoring the press, and allowing military courts to try 
       civilians for treason. Taney vociferously disagreed, 
       accusing Lincoln of assuming dictatorial powers in 
       violation of the Constitution. Lincoln ignored Taney's 
       protests, and exercised his presidential authority 
       fearlessly, determined that he would preserve the 
       Union.James F. Simon skillfully brings to life this 
       compelling story of the momentous tug-of-war between the 
       President and the Chief Justice during the worst crisis in
       the nation's history."...taut and gripping...a dramatic, 
       charged narrative."-Publishers Weekly Starred Review
