Resumen del Editor
An expansive exploration of the exciting lives of 30 trans people from 1850-1950 that radically changes everything you’ve been told about transgender history
Focusing on 30 influential individuals who are all but unknown today, activist, writer, and educator Eli Erlick highlights how trans people of the past were much more vibrant, creative, and respected than in the popular imagination. These remarkable stories range from romance to rebellion and mystery to murder, all exploring the grit, joy, and survival of trans people before the word gender entered our vocabulary. Together, each narrative provides new insights into the self-determination of transgender figures that will change the world for trans people today.
Organized in 4 parts, each section corresponds to today’s controversies over gender identity:
- Kids features 7 stories of young trans people, including brothers Mark and David Ferrow, who became two of the first children to access transgender medical treatment following overwhelming support from their friends, family, and neighbors.
- Activists follows 9 influential individuals, like Sally-Tom, a trans woman recently freed from slavery, who won the first known government approval for a legal change of sex, and Gerda von Zobeltitz, a trans countess who instigated a forgotten LGBTQ+ riot 40 years before Stonewall.
- Workers tracks the lives of 7 figures like snake charmer Elise Marks and florist John Berger, who were forced to hide their trans status to find employment, love, and safety.
- Athletes highlights 5 competitors, including the world’s greatest female billiards player of the 1910s, trans woman Francis Anderson.
Bold and visionary, Erlick’s debut lifts these stories from the depths of the archives to narrate trans lives in a way that has never been attempted before.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 371
In a gay nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016, the shooter, Omar Mateen, murdered 49 people and wounded 53 others. The attack was the deadliest act of violence against the LGBTQ+ community in US history and the deadliest terrorist attack in the United States since 9/11. But there’s a story you haven’t heard. The FBI had a secret history with the shooter and his father. To obscure that history, the FBI pushed a false story that the media dutifully carried—that the attacker was a secretly gay Islamist extremist who had chosen to target Pulse and planned the attack for weeks.

A disturbing tale of a young man's uncanny ability to remain both young and beautiful while descending into a life of heartless debauchery, The Picture of Dorian Gray was considered proof of both Wilde's genius and his perversion. Oscar Wilde's scandalous best seller of 1891 was one of the most damning pieces of evidence used against him in the trial that brought about his downfall.

Charlotte Bellows wrote The Definition of Beautiful between the ages of 15 and 17, in the wake of lockdown and in recovery from anorexia. In the tradition of Sylvia Plath in The Bell Jar and Françoise Sagan in Bonjour Tristesse, Bellows writes with deceptively straightforward urgency, pushing through society's constraints on the bodies and minds of girls and women to offer a story both achingly familiar and devastatingly new.
