Culture Clash: The Making of Gay Sensibility Reviews
-
A terrific overview of a number of gay-related historical topics and how they managed to coalesce over time into something that could legitimately be characterized as a "sensibility." There is lots here subsequent queer scholarship will take issue with, but I turn to it often as an invaluable reference clearly articulating certain perspectives on gay history and scholarship at a particular moment in time.

a good challenging read
