Answer 1

With photo

May 10, 1933 - An event unseen since the Middle Ages occurs as German students from universities formerly regarded as among the finest in the world, gather in Berlin and other German cities to burn books with **** "unGerman"***** ideas.

Works of world famous writers such as Thomas and Henrich Mann, Albert Einstein, Emil Zola, Andre Gide, Marcel Proust, Jack London, Upton Sinclair, Helen Keller and H. G. Wells were not spared.

Books cannot be killed by fire–books are weapons in the war of ideas.

Answer 2

I'm sure if you put "book burning" into Yahoo's search engine, you'll find something.

I'm wondering what grade you are in. For a student to do a report on book burning seems awfully tacky and depressing to me!
