Bovard, James, Terrorism and Tyranny: Trampling Freedom, Justice, and Peace to Rid the World of Evil. New York, Palgrave Macmillan, 2004

Hugle, Linda, Civil Rights/Casualties of Wartime, http://www.col-ed.org/cur/sst/sst38.txt (Last accessed on 28 July 2005).
This site is good for a briefing on the way government infringed the civil liberties of its citizens. It goes back to the Roman era. More useful, of course, is the U. S. History section.
Rehnquist, William H., All the Laws but One: Civil Liberties in Wartime. New York, Vintage Books, Random House. 1998.
This is a very enjoyable and readable book. The book deals with the suspension of Habeas Corpus throughout American history back to the Civil War. A vast majority of the book focuses on Abraham Lincoln.
