This unique reference book compiles over 500 news stories, editorials, essays, and reviews taken from The New YorkTimes that chronicle the legal, political, social, cultural, and personal evolution of gay rights throughout the 20th century.

Among the century's many civil rights developments, the gay rights movement is unique in its origins, its goals, and its impact. For years gays and lesbians were not even recognized as a distinct group, so that when they finally became galvanized following the Stonewall riot their struggle became a quest for individual and collective identity as much as one for civil rights. Including over 100 illustrations, this book reveals much about the journey of homosexuals from isolated, criminalized pariahs to members of a distinct and outspoken community.
