| Description | Cartoon shows a book with title "The Love of Freedom" standing unscathed amid the fires of "Hatred," "Totalitarianism," "Intolerance," and "Ignorance." During the Cold War, the Communist countries routinely practiced censorship and controlled the dissemination of information. In the United States, during the McCarthy era, efforts were made to remove books from libraries and censor free inquiry. Drawn shortly after President Eisenhower deplored book burning and censorship in a speech at Dartmouth College on June 14,1953. |
