Who's a Pretty Boy, Then?: One Hundred and Fifty Years of Gay Life in Pictures

Amazon.com
James Gardiner's eclectic collection of gay male photos, postcards, play bills, theater posters, and other ephemera is an unguided tour through 100 years of gay male life and culture. Gardiner has wisely followed no specific historical or literary plan--although the photos are arranged in general chronological order--and the effect is striking. As you page through the hundreds of images, you are forced to make your own connections, construct your own sense of reality. Who's a Pretty Boy Then? is a historical and artistic tour de force that brings gay male history alive.

More than 600 pictures--portraits and erotica, postcards and cuttings, and snapshots from private collections--make up one man's personal and highly idiosyncratic view of gay history since the invention of the camera.
