Grant led the Union Armies to victory over the Confederacy in the American Civil War. As an American hero, Grant was later elected the 18th President of the United States (1869–1877), working to implement Congressional Reconstruction and to remove the vestiges of slavery.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The Southern States were not fond of the idea of abolishing the slavery, and they did pretty much everything in their power to counter this movement on their territory.

The reason for the banning of this material was to not allow their population to read it, thus to avoid some people to start changing their minds and be pro-abolitionist, creating a movement for it in their own territory.

2. It would help stop the spread of communism
Not too sure about a third reason. These two are most important though
