dc.description	WHEN published in 1957, this book examined the career of the First Amendment liberties in the sweep of American history as one could read that history at the middle of the twentieth century. It was a complicated history, for it included the adoption of the Bill of Rights, the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, the court-packing plan of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the New Deal legislation, and the early years of the Warren Court. It included also the Communist Control Act, the McCarran Internal Security Act, loyalty oaths, guilt by association, and non-Communist affidavits. It included the tangled story of the struggle over religious liberty and separation of church and state, compulsory flag salute acts, Sunday closing laws, Bible reading in public schools, movie censorship, obscene literature, the clear and present danger doctrine, freedom of assembly, Communist conspiracy trials—and much more, many more vexing problems.	en_US
