Book Synopsis
When the United States goes to war, the nation's attention focuses on the president. This title reveals that even in politically sensitive wartime environments, individual members of Congress frequently propose legislation, hold investigative hearings, and engage in national policy debates in the public sphere.

Trade Review
"Douglas Kriner closely scrutinizes how and when Congress influences foreign policy in this very fine book. This is the best statement, quantitative or qualitative, I've seen on the role of Congress in American foreign policy making." - David Clark, Binghamton University"
