Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an authentic record of the Naval Court Martial convened in the case of Commander Alexander Slidell Mackenzie. The trial was occasioned by the deaths of three crew members of the brig Somers, allegedly killed without form of law and with malice aforethought. The prosecution sought to portray Mackenzie as a murderer, while the defense argued that his actions were justified by duty and necessity. The book provides insights into the legal and ethical implications of military discipline and the nature of justice in crisis situations. It explores the complex relationship between authority, obedience, and the boundaries of acceptable conduct in a setting where extreme measures may be deemed necessary to ensure the safety and order of a vessel at sea. The book sheds light on the complexities of command, the limits of authority, and the moral and legal responsibilities of those in positions of leadership.
