The Day They Came to Arrest the Book
Nat Hentoff
Deals with the controversial subject of children's book censorship. The story centres around an attempt to get "Huckleberry Finn" banned from use in an American school because of alleged inherent racism. This rapidly creates an explosive situation within the local community.
