Synopsis

The stirring chronicle of one man's remarkable life. Covering the years 1933-1946, Donald Vining's Diary portrays a long-vanished age and the lifestyle of a gay generation all too frequently forgotten. A touching and revealing volume documenting the surprisingly vibrant culture that existed decades before Stonewall, A Gay Diary is not to be missed by anyone interested in gay American history.

Reviews

A refreshing dip back into a gay world and consciousness which even many of us who lived through it had almost forgotten: not the world of oppression we read so much about nowadays (though that certainly existed) but a world of joy and adventure, surreptitious but not always all that dangerous.... The book is a jewel.
