How Grove Press ended censorship of the printed word in America.
Grove Press and its house journal, The Evergreen Review, revolutionised the publishing industry and radicalised the reading habits of the ''paperback generation.'' In telling this story, Rebel Publisher offers a new window onto the long 1960s, from 1951, when Barney Rosset purchased the fledgling press for $3,000, to 1970, when the multimedia corporation into which he had built the company was crippled by a strike and feminist takeover. Grove Press was not only one of the entities responsible for ending censorship of the printed word in the United States but also for bringing avant-garde literature, especially drama, into the cultural mainstream.
