The challenged book I recently read was Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. This book has been challenged‚ and almost banned‚ for quite a while.

Robert Cohn was once middleweight boxing champion of Princeton. Do not think that I am very much impressed by that as a boxing title‚ but it meant a lot to Cohn. He cared nothing for boxing‚ in fact he disliked it‚ but he learned it painfully and thoroughly to counteract the feeling of inferiority and shyness he had felt on being treated as a Jew at Princeton.
