David Kopay, Perry Deane Young

Advocate Books, 2001

well-written, gutsy and illuminating
This is David Kopay's account of growing up gay back when there were very few books or support groups to turn to, which makes it stand even taller.

I found a few dates to be incorrect, and many names omitted, but this does not detract from the essence of the story.
