Shelf Awareness

A substantive look at a key moment in the history of the LGBTQIAP-equality movement.
Kirkus Reviews

Pitman’s fresh storytelling brings emotion and depth to the history of a movement and the establishment that served as an epicenter for social change.
Publishers Weekly

The narrative is presented through a series of "objects": photographs of places, people, or items, such as a police officer's nightstick, a parking meter, a matchbook, or a protest leaflet. Though each object only reveals a small part of the story, together they reveal a powerful picture and offer rich historical context . . . [An] inviting, engaging, and well-researched approach to history.
