This anthology pays tribute to Allan Bérubé, a self-taught historian and MacArthur Fellow who was a pioneer in the study of lesbian and gay history in the United States. Best known for his Lambda Literary Award-winning book 'Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II', Bérubé also wrote extensively on the history of sexual politics in San Francisco and on the relationship between sexuality, class, and race. The editors of this book have selected sixteen of his most important essays, including hard-to-access articles and unpublished writing.
