Foreign Affairs and the Constitution in the Age of Fighting Sail"Concentrating on the legal issues generated by the French maritime campaign - especially those rooted in constitutional debate - Casto illumines the continuing contest between Hamilton and Jefferson, two men who personified the conflict over the definition of neutrality rights. Casto offers close readings of Hamilton's Pacificus and Madison's Helvidius papers and of the Supreme Court's legendary refusal to advise the president."--BOOK JACKET. |
