Book Synopsis
Based on research, this book focuses on the wartime powers presidents wield at home. It shows that congress is more likely to defer to the president's policy preferences when political debates center on national rather than local considerations.

Trade Review
"William G. Howell, Saul P. Jackman, and Jon C. Rogowski continue the valuable and highly regarded line of presidency research that integrates modern analytical techniques with deep substantive knowledge. No question in American politics is of greater importance-or more timely-than the power of the president and his relationship with Congress, and The Wartime President makes a clearly written and cutting-edge contribution that is sure to spur further research." (Steven Callander, Stanford University)"
