Book Details

First Sentence

"Even at a distance of nearly half a century many residents of Bartlesville, Oklahoma, still feel strongly about Ruth W. Brown, the single, middle-aged public librarian who lost her job of thirty years in 1950 amid charges that she circulated communist and subversive materials-the Nation, the New Republic, and Soviet Russia Today."
