A masterful and timely study. Bruff explains how and why top lawyers in the Bush administration decided to manipulate the law for political ends. He also provides thoughtful and seasoned advice on how to restore our constitutional government. Louis Fisher, author of The Constitution and 9/11 An important book of astonishing breadth. With lucid and compelling prose, Bruff brilliantly exposes the flawed reasoning in the legal opinions supporting Bush policies in the war on terror. Nancy V. Baker, author of General Ashcroft: Attorney at War A wonderfully written and compellingly readable book - for legal scholars but also, and really more importantly, for our fellow citizens. Sanford Levinson, author of Constitutional Faith
