My favorite part about this episode in history is the name of the supreme court case "United States v. One Book Called Ulysses". The whole of the United States going up against just one book? That's a fight I would love to see.

And the book won! The pen was literally mightier than the sword.

Lol, I don't think U.S. Supreme Court justices use swords. I'd love to be proven wrong, though =)
