Description

Foerstel analyses eight major book-banning incidents from 1976 to 1992, ranks the 50 most challenged books in the 1990s and summarises the challenges to them. He also traces First Amendment cases and precedents in book-banning in schools and public libraries, and interviews banned authors. - from Amzon
