Summary
Determined to preserve the Union, Commander-in-Chief Lincoln waged war, suspended habeas corpus, tried civilians before military tribunals, and performed other actions that went beyond the scope of the U.S. Constitution and existing laws.

President Lincoln's battle plans--when field commanders finally deployed them--ultimately defeated the South. But was the resulting juggernaut worth the moral and constitutional cost?
