Becoming Visible : An Illustrated History of Lesbian and Gay Life in Twentieth-Century America

Rating:
Summary: Excellent and well organized
Review: Some of my LGBT friends gave me this book when they heard I would like to learn about their history and the civil rights movement we all work in. I enjoyed it cover to cover and would recomend it without hesitation to other heterosexuals who wanted to get an introduction about the importance of LGBT history without feeling like they were reading a textbook.
