Book description

Anthony Comstock, fighter – is a biography of Anthony Comstock published in 1913 and written by Charles Gallaudet Trumbull, Evangelical writer and journalist. Anthony Comstock was a secretary of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice and an anti-vice activist, who was dedicated to upholding Victorian morality. This book is an authorized biography of this great fighter for purity. The story is one of life-and-death adventure, moral and physical heroism, and incomparable achievement. During the thirty years in which Mr. Comstock has been working for the suppression of vice he has destroyed over 43 tons of vile books, 28,425 pounds of stereotype plates, two and a half million obscene pictures and 12,945 negatives. The detailed account of how all this was done is a most thrilling and remarkable story.
