This point deserves emphasis. It's pretty depressing that they're modifying classic literature to suit modern progressive sensibilities, but that's where we are.

Buy hard copy books. Don't rely on electronic copies.

Even hard copy books are being changed. Buy used, old copies.

I saw bowdlerized versions of Huckleberry Finn decades ago. Even back then I thought that was appalling.

Who is modifying classic literature to suit modern progressive sensibilities? Is there a specific group or organization doing the modifying?
