FROM THE DUST JACKET FLAP: Over Lincoln's Shoulder is a revisionist account that corrects prevailing images of the relationship between Republican politicians and the army during the Civil War. By examining the conflict between Congress's constitutional right to investigate and the impropriety of its actions, the book raises questions that are applicable today about the ability of legislative bodies to function in areas where specialized knowledge is required.
