Book Synopsis
Merchants of Sin takes a politically incorrect view of the history of obscenity laws and regulations, shedding light on one of the main driving forces that brought us from a once clean and moral society to one that is saturated in pornography, dysfunction, and degeneracy.
Covering from the late 19th Century to our current day, it details the battles over obscenity that took place in and out of court in regard to books, comic-books, comedy, and film.
Who were the people who pushed against, and eventually overturned, obscenity regulations? Who were the ones behind Second-Wave Feminism, the 1960s Counterculture, and the production and dissemination of hardcore pornography? What were their motivations? Garland names names and pulls no punches.
This book is not for the faint of heart, but it is crucial for those interested in the truth about how our civilization arrived at where it is today.
