To Believe in Women: What Lesbians Have Done for America--A History

by Lillian Faderman

To Believe in Women: What Lesbians Have Done for America--A History Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This landmark work of lesbian history focuses on how certain late-nineteenth-century and twentieth-century women whose lives can be described as lesbian were in the forefront of the battle to secure the rights and privileges that large numbers of Americans enjoy today. Lillian Faderman persuasively argues that their lesbianism may in fact have facilitated their accomplishments. A book of impeccable research and compelling readability, TO BELIEVE IN WOMEN will be a source of enlightenment for all, and for many a singular source of pride.
