Review Quotes: This beautiful, resourceful, informative and important addition to trans history helps our younger generation to connect to a deeper understanding of our past. Remembering the foundations of current freedoms, and aiding solidarity for our future, cannot be underestimated. It helps us all to be brave.--Dr. Wenn B. Lawson (PhD) CPsychol AFBsS
