This delightful volume covers noteworthy queer meeting placesbars, restaurants, churches, public halls, and cruising areas such as parks and tearooms--and major sites associated with the lesbian and gay liberation movement. From the St. Louis apartment where Tennessee Williams grew up to the hangouts of the blues queens of the '20s and '30s, this gem brings gay people, places and events together in a refreshing way that makes the past come alive with great spirit. 15 photos.
i lent this book to my african-american history instructor (who is straight) 6 months ago and i can't get it back! he picks it up and reads parts of it all the time, james baldwin on the cover caught his interest, and he is learning history to teach that he was never taught. lots of historical info here.
