The Turner Diaries is a 1978 fiction novel by William Luther Pierce, a neo-Nazi and the founder and chairman of National Alliance, a white nationalist group, published under the pseudonym Andrew Macdonald.[1][2] It depicts a violent revolution in the United States which leads to the overthrow of the federal government, a nuclear war, and ultimately a race war which leads to the systematic extermination of non-whites and Jews.
Yeah, ok. You go FBI.

I'm so old that I remember when they wanted to ban Huckleberry Finn because Twain used some colorful language (with the emphasis on color) - oh wait, that's in that stack too!
And from a cursory glance, those books are not banned. The should be age-restricted. Do you think your 6th grader would enjoy reading "Nately's Whore" in Catch-22?

Not if he had any taste. I hated that book.
James and the Giant Peach on the other hand I seem to think I rather enjoyed. I actually read it to a class of 4th Graders. Why would that be age restricted?
