A historical collection of official instructions and court discussion about how the United States treated alien enemies and Habeas Corpus during the war era.
It presents directives from the Department of State, the Secretary of State, and military authorities, along with judicial commentary on jurisdiction and rights.
This edition compiles regulatory letters, circulars, and excerpts that show how alien enemies were to report, where they could reside, and when they could be placed in confinement or granted parole. It also highlights the debates about federal versus state authority in habeas corpus cases and the balance between national security and personal liberty.- Learn how alien enemies were required to report to local marshals and be designated distant residences from tidewater.
- See how parole and parole-like conditions were offered or denied, and how authorities handled custody and release.
- Understand the questions of jurisdiction and which courts have authority to review habeas corpus for wartime detainees.
- Get a window into the language and procedures used by government officials to enforce wartime rules.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
