With sword and buckler, E Haldeman-Julius, publisher of the famed "Blue Books", declared war on the enemies of free-thought. This wide-ranging, candid, and humorous collection of articles and essays attacking organised religion in its various forms, covers such topics as biblical errancy, the miraculous, the number of churches in America, the scepticism of Mark Twain, and Upton Sinclair and Jesus. This classic volume also discusses many serious issues still of vital concern to us today, including fundamentalists' attacks on science and culture, extremism, and the debate over religious instruction in public schools.
E. Haldeman-Julius (1889 - 1951) was a socialist writer, atheist thinker, social reformer, and publisher. He is best remembered as the head of Haldeman-Julius Publications, the creator of a series of pamphlets known as "Little Blue Books," total sales of which ran into the hundreds of millions of copies.
