The first edition of Purity in Printdocumented book censorship in America from the 1870s to the 1930s, embedding it within the larger social and cultural history of the time. This second edition adds two new chapters that carry this history forward to the beginning of the twenty-first century."Thoroughly documented and richly illustrated. . . . Boyer has traced the confusions, the ironies, and the sometimes humorous and sometimes tragic effects of American efforts to cope with the question of what is permissible and what is taboo in the public morality and in the printed word."—George K. Smart, American Quarterly Print Culture History in Modern America
Wayne A. Wiegand and James P. Danky, Series Editors
