The Portable Queer: a Gay in the Life : A Compilation of Saints and Sinners in Gay History [first edition]

Those who have changed the face of homosexuality over the centuries are not completely heroic. Learn about the first great gay activist Karl Heinrich Ulrichs, read of brave men and women of the Matachine Society and of the Stonewall riot, and relive the stories of the writers and artists who pushed a movement forward. Intriguing, shocking, and ultimately hopeful! Erin McHugh is a longtime gay activist and fundraiser, former publishing executive, and author of several books, including the five book series The 5 W’s: Who?, What?, When?, Where?, and Why?
