Cac Ban
 Banning Comings and goings in Banning often amounted to coming and going. Located in the San Gorgonio Pass between Mt. San Gorgonio and Mt. San Jacinto, the city was once a way station for stagecoach travelers, as well as a midway rest stop for motorists making the trip between Riverside and Palm Springs. The headquarters crews that built the Colorado River Aqueduct made longer stopovers. Gen. George S. Patton Jr. bivouacked his tanks in the deserts east of Banning to train prior to their deployment in North Africa's Sahara to fight the Second World War. But many stayed in Banning, too, and ranched the badlands; grew almonds, peaches, and other crops; built plants to dry the fruit and manufacture plastic goods; and generally stuck around "the pass," making it much more than just a place in the rearview mirror.
 Literature Suppressed on Social Grounds by Dawn B. Sova, X Throughout history, tyrants, totalitarian states, church institutions, and democratic governments alike have banned books that challenged their assumptions or questioned their authority. Even today, attempts by school boards, local governments, and religious fanatics to restrict our freedom to read continue. The four-volume Banned Books collection focuses on more than 400 works that have been censored for their political, social, religious, or erotic content -- in the United States and around the world -- from biblical times to the present day. Works have been chosen for their literary or historical significance, including their role in the history of censorship. Most are read in middle- and high-school curricula as well as in university courses; some have been the focus of major national or international campaigns; and all were either written in English or are available in English translations. Banned Books: Literature Suppressed on Social Grounds discusses writings that have been banned over the centuries because they offended or merely ignored official truths; challenged widely held assumptions; or contained ideas or language unacceptable to a state, religious institution, or private moral watchdog. Works covered include: -- The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain -- The adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle -- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll -- As I Lay Dying, William Faulkner -- Being There, Jerzy Kosinski -- Camille, Alexandre Dumas, Jr. -- The Color Purple, Alice Walker -- Deliverance, James Dickey -- East of Eden, John Steinbeck -- Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury -- A Farewell to Arms, ErnestHemingway -- Gargantua and Pantagruel, Francois Rabelais -- Howl and Other Poems, Allen Ginsberg -- I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Maya Angelou -- Jaws, Peter Benchley -- Junky, William S.
