Notes: "Fig Leaf Edition. This novel has won the praise of some of the world's greatest writers and critics, but a censorship of the city of Boston has banned it, and we have therefore prepared this special edition for sale throughout Massachusetts. We point out to the reader that there are still a great many pages not blacked out; and these are the really important pages, full of the political and social information which is the real cause of the attack upon this book."--p. [3] at front.
