Synopsis
George Chauncey's work, Gay New York, reveals the tolerance and acceptance of homosexuals in the pre-1960's. When did it become unacceptable to be a "confirmed bachelor?" Chauncey puts forth that , "the closet" came to be during the 1930s, as a middle-class crisis in manhood invoked by the Depression. Winner of the 1994 Los Angeles Times Book Prize for History
