Catcher in the Rye Published in 1951

On July 16, 1951, Catcher in the Rye was published.  While the novel, which is about a teenage who is confused and disillusioned by the adult world, would go on to be taught in high school English classes for decades to come, it would also be the only novel ever published by its author J.D. Salinger.
