"A model study among those which use a single incident to illumine larger issues. But although we learn much of the political and economic and social history of the early 1950s, it is in legal history and over a longer span that Dr. Marcus excels." — A. E. Campbell, Times Literary Supplement

"Rarely, perhaps never, has a judicial proceeding been the subject of such thorough and perceptive exposition as Marcus has given the Steel Seizure case." — Howard C. Westwood, University of Chicago Law Review

"The richness of the research, the sophistication of the analysis, and the great editorial skill and care that went into the book will make this a standard work for all students of the Truman era." — Arthur F. McClure, American Historical Review

"Although there have been some other articles and books on the Youngstown case, this book remains definitive. The author handles a variety of materials exceedingly well, and shows great sensitivity not only to the legal issues involved, but to the political ones as well. It is a model case study." — Melvin I. Urofsky, Virginia Commonwealth University

"Marcus’s book continues to be the only extended discussion of the Steel Strike incident. Truman’s seizure of the steel companies and the subsequent litigtation remain an important historical episode with contemporary implications for executive power cases." — G. Edward White, University of Virginia School of Law
