Men Like That - A Southern Queer History

Summary

This history of queer life in the South seeks to debunk the myth that same-sex desires can't find expression outside the big city. It shows that the nominally conservative institutions of small-town life - home, church, school and workplace - were the very sites where queer sexuality flourished.
