Review Quotes: "In this absorbing and uniquely intergenerational research project, Queer Generations, Marshall, Hegarty, Cover, Newman, Rasmussen, and Aggleton do superb work contextualizing the development of youth sexual citizenship in across temporally shifting understandings of what it means to live against the normative grain of sexuality and gender. As strong in its methodology and theory as it is in its nuanced reporting on key lens that continue to provide resources for and shape the experiences of LGBTQ+ people, this is book is an exceptional resource for youth studies, education, gender studies, history, and more." --Cris Mayo, University of Vermont, USA
