Didn't want to hijack the other thread where this was mentioned. These books are being re-written and published without the "n" word and without "injun". Political correctness run amuck. Heaven forbid the kids who read these books for their assignment should get the opportunity to learn some real history, or to be proud of the advances that our society has made since those times. It's like touching up the Mona Lisa because her hairstyle is obsolete. Literary sabatoge. I'm not sure if they are do-gooders or just out to make money by selling new books to every library in America.
