A Short History of Queer Women

By: Kirsty Loehr

Narrated by: Ellie Gossage

Queer women have always existed—let's put them back in the history books

No, they weren't "just friends!"

Queer women have been written out of history since, well, forever. "But historians famously care about women!," said no one. From Anne Bonny and Mary Read who sailed the seas together disguised as pirates, to US football captain Megan Rapinoe declaring "You can't win a championship without gays on your team," via countless literary salons and tuxedos, A Short History of Queer Women sets the record straight on women who have loved other women through the ages.

Who says lesbians can't be funny?

Great!

This is entertaining and a very clever and funny way of looking at queer history!

Unabashed telling of lesbian herstory

I enjoyed the humor and the ironic facts told in this short version of a long story about lesbians

yes

More books like this pleeeease. Read this book whether you’re a part of the community or not. Then share it.

Bonus: Kirsty Loehr is super funny

Short history but make it queer

I loved all the history that was in this book!! I as a lesbian knew about some of it but also didn’t know about a lot of it and I enjoyed learning about more queer history!! I will definitely be buying the book!!
