Hi! We wanted to share about a new book we released.
Historian Jonathan Ned Katz uncovers the forgotten story of radical lesbian feminist Eve Adams, and her long-lost book Lesbian Love in The Daring Life and Dangerous Times of Eve Adams.
Praise for the Book: • "The Daring Life and Dangerous Times of Eve Adams is a detective story, a thriller, an exploration of queer history, a tragedy, and finally an act of loving recovery. The until-now lost story of Eve Adams is the story of the struggles, the persistence, and the triumphs of queer people in America, even in the face of death." —Michael Bronski, author of A Queer History of the United States • "This is an impressive feat of research as well as a fascinating and important story about an unsung and, until now, invisible figure in gay history." — Booklist, STARRED review • "Anarchist, lesbian, Jew, writer, anthropologist, and freedom fighter Eve Adams lived her beliefs and her desires boldly and died the victim of small-mindedness and barbarity. A fascinating, groundbreaking book." —Judith Levine, journalist and author of The Feminist and the Sex Offender Jonathan Ned Katz is the author of four pioneering books on the US history of life, sexuality, and intimacy. He is the founder of outhistory.org, and he has taught and spoken at Yale, Harvard, and Princeton. He's also the recipient of the Magnus Hirschfeld Medal for outstanding contributions to sex research and Yale University's Brudner Prize, among many other accolades.
