Guy Montag is a fireman who believes that he has a great life, even though he assists in the censorship. Firemen burn books to prevent society from unhappy emotions and unapt thoughts. Fireman notified by alarms sent to the fire station would immediately go to the home of the lawbreaker that possessed the books. Kerosene covered books would then be torched with a flame-thrower and the offender would be taken off to prison. Later on the house where the books had been found would also be burned down.
