Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthony Comstock, Fighter: Some Impressions of a Lifetime of Adventure in Conflict With the Powers of Evil The country-boy clerk was scared, too; thoroughly so. He was downright afraid to go for that dog. 80 he went to his room and prayed to God for courage, and for suc cess in killing the animal. He had a very definite notion of what he proposed to do, and he knew where to go for strength and guidance to do it, - two characteristics of his later life. Getting up from his knees, he took his firearms, locked the door of the store, and started to look for the dog. There were two roads, either of which he might take. One went up the side of a high hill, the other ran along by the river, and they left each other at a fork in the road along which he started. In the angle of land formed by the separation of these two roads was a row of tenement houses, occupied by the Irish and other poorer mill-workers of the community. A retaining wall some seven feet high supported the bank on the lower Side. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... whom the loving and tender side of their nature is most prominently developed. Anthony Comstock is a striking example of this principle. He is a "home body," through and through, loving his home and his dear ones with a deep tenderness. His love for children is a passion in his life; it is they, indeed, for whom he has laid down his life in his crusade of eternal vigilance against the crimes whose objective is to ruin childhood. And he has learned, in the school of sorrow, the pathway to love and tenderness. His first-born and only child, a daughter, was born in the summer of 1871. The following year he was in the thick of his early experiences of desperate conflict with the doers of evil. In June of 1872 the baby daughter was taken ill. One morning, June 28th, Mr. Comstock left his home for court, while a trained nurse shared with the mother the care of the child. Mr. Comstock was conducting the prosecution, and was on the witness stand all day, under a bitter and cudgelling cross-examination. At night he returned to his home, to find the littie girl dead. The entry in his diary for that day reads: "The Lord's will be done. Oh, for grace to say it and live it 1" That was on a Friday. The court adjourned until Monday, when Mr. Comstock went on to the stand again, while in the meantime he and the heart-broken mother had buried their child. So his love for children is not "academic" or in the abstract; it has a basis that nothing can ever take from him. A friend of the writer's, Mr. Frederick Hall of Dundee, Illinois, whose sketches of the child life of the Bible have put readers under heavy obligation, recently had an interesting experience with Mr. Comstock on this side of his nature. He writes about it as follows: I called at his office...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One man fought the battle for national purity... and won. By the 1870’s, a young Anthony Comstock arrived in New York City in the middle of the Second Industrial Revolution. America was changing. As the world’s first billion dollar company was being formed, rural families flocked to the city and immigration exploded. New technologies coupled with metropolitan anonymity enabled the rapid spread of obscenity, contraception, and abortion. Insufficient laws had not caught up to new challenges and Comstock saw how these vices would have a detrimental effect on the family and American culture if not properly checked. At the age 28, he made an unconditional surrender of his life to the will of God; he gave up his personal ambitions and took God’s will for himself, no matter what might be the cost. He entered the fight. He began by making citizen’s arrests and incredibly within a year he found himself in Washington, DC meeting with congressmen and drafting the Postal Act of 1873. The Comstock Act, as it soon came to be known, passed in dramatic fashion during the final hours of the 42nd Congress and Comstock himself was shortly thereafter surprised with an appointment to be its chief enforcer with the newly created office of U.S. Post Office Special Agent. Thus, Comstock embarked on the life work in which he would serve for the next 42. This thrilling and remarkable story tell the account of how Anthony Comstock fought the battle for national purity and won. “Fear thou not; for I am with thee. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper.” (Isaiah 41:10; 54: 17)

Download or read book Lust on Trial written by Amy Werbel and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony Comstock was America’s first professional censor. From 1873 to 1915, as Secretary of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, Comstock led a crusade against lasciviousness, salaciousness, and obscenity that resulted in the confiscation and incineration of more than three million pictures, postcards, and books he judged to be obscene. But as Amy Werbel shows in this rich cultural and social history, Comstock’s campaign to rid America of vice in fact led to greater acceptance of the materials he deemed objectionable, offering a revealing tale about the unintended consequences of censorship. In Lust on Trial, Werbel presents a colorful journey through Comstock’s career that doubles as a new history of post–Civil War America’s risqué visual and sexual culture. Born into a puritanical New England community, Anthony Comstock moved to New York in 1868 armed with his Christian faith and a burning desire to rid the city of vice. Werbel describes how Comstock’s raids shaped New York City and American culture through his obsession with the prevention of lust by means of censorship, and how his restrictions provided an impetus for the increased circulation and explicitness of “obscene” materials. By opposing women who preached sexual liberation and empowerment, suppressing contraceptives, and restricting artistic expression, Comstock drew the ire of civil liberties advocates, inspiring more open attitudes toward sexual and creative freedom and more sophisticated legal defenses. Drawing on material culture high and low, including numerous examples of the “obscenities” Comstock seized, Lust on Trial provides fresh insights into Comstock’s actions and motivations, the sexual habits of Americans during his era, and the complicated relationship between law and cultural change.
