Farm Boys: Lives of Gay Men from the Rural Midwest (1996)
Homosexuality is often seen as a purely urban experience, far removed from rural and small-town life. Farm Boys undermines that cliche by telling the stories of more than three dozen gay men, ranging in age from 24 to 84, who grew up in farm families in the midwestern United States.
A Passion to Preserve: Gay Men as Keepers of Culture (2004) -- Finalist Lambda Literary 2004 GLBT Studies Awards
From large cities to rural communities, gay men have long been impassioned pioneers as keepers of culture: rescuing and restoring decrepit buildings, revitalizing blighted neighborhoods, saving artifacts and documents of historical significance. This penchant to preserve, though widely observed, is typically ignored or dismissed as a stereotypical gay cliché, even by many gay men themselves. A Passion to Preserve explores this authentic and complex dimension of gay men's lives by profiling early and contemporary preservationists from throughout the United States. This book illuminates neglected facets of what it means to be gay, and highlights contributions to the larger culture that gays are exceptionally inclined to make.
