Excellent work, essential reading for anyone looking for a rough guide to gay history.,

This review is from: Making Gay History: The Half Century Fight for Lesbian and Gay Equal Rights (Paperback)
This is an excellent collection of first-person narratives of gay life in America from 1945 to the present. The people interviewed cover everything from the Mattachine society to PFLAG to the GSA movement. Extremely useful for getting a broad look at the LGBT rights movement in America.
I personally prefer "Making History" by the same author because the interviews appear all at once. This edition has events organized by date, which can be a little hard to follow.

This review is from: Making Gay History: The Half Century Fight for Lesbian and Gay Equal Rights (Paperback)
This is an enjoyable read. It covers the 1960s through 2000 and presents the information in an oral history format. Lots of good information, but definitely gay-centric (as you can tell from the title). Lesbians are discussed a fair bit, but bisexuals are trans people are nearly absent.
