This extraordinary chronological and thematic volume is sure to benefit students, scholars, and the wider public interested in the current state of LGBTQ history for years to come. The nearly thirty authors who penned the chapters in Romesburg’s volume are authorities in their subject matters, yet the texts are written in a widely accessible style. This is a gift to all of us, especially to the many readers who will be introduced to new concepts for the first time reading these pages. Romesburg’s edited collection will surely excite a new generation to explore this incredibly awesome field of LGBTQ history.Eric Gonzaba, California State University, Fullerton, in the Journal of the History of Sexuality, University of Texas Press
