Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, 50th Anniversary Edition PaperbackCopyright 1982 by Ray Bradbury, Published 1991 by Del Rey and Ballantine Books, Stated 59th Print “Internationally acclaimed with more than 5 million copies in print, Fahrenheit 451 is Ray Bradbury’s classic novel of censorship and defiance, as resonant today as it was when it was first published nearly 50 years ago. Guy Montag was a fireman whose job it was to start fires… The system was simple. Everyone understood it. Books were for burning … along with the houses in which they were hidden. Guy Montag enjoyed his job. He had been a fireman for ten years, and he had never questioned the pleasure of the midnight runs nor the joy of watching pages consumed by flames… never questioned anything until he met a seventeen-year-old girl who told him of a past when people were not afraid. Then he met a professor who told him of a future in which people could think… and Guy Montag suddenly realized what he had to do!” *Note: Qualifies for combined shipping discount when purchased with other books from this seller.

I was interested to learn Bradbury’s inspiration for this book. Apparently he was once out walking at night with a fellow writer when a police car pulled up and an officer got out. He asked Bradbury what he was doing, to which he responded that he was walking, “Putting one foot in front of the other.”.
