Book Overview

Judging Executive Power introduces students to sixteen important Supreme Court cases that have shaped the power of the American presidency. The cases selected include the removal power, executive privilege, executive immunity, the line-item veto, as well as a president's wartime powers from the Civil War to the War on Terror. The book both brings the courts back into the teaching of the American presidency and securely fixes landmark judicial opinions within their political and historical context.
