Queer, There, and Everywhere: 23 People Who Changed the World

Queer, There, and Everywhere: 23 People Who Changed the World

A New York Public Library Best Book of 2017

A Chicago Public Library Best of the Best Book for Teens 2017

This first-ever LGBTQ history book of its kind for young adults will appeal to fans of fun, empowering pop-culture books like Rad American Women A-Z and Notorious RBG. Three starred reviews!

World history has been made by countless lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals—and you’ve never heard of many of them.

Queer author and activist Sarah Prager delves deep into the lives of 23 people who fought, created, and loved on their own terms. From high-profile figures like Abraham Lincoln and Eleanor Roosevelt to the trailblazing gender-ambiguous Queen of Sweden and a bisexual blues singer who didn’t make it into your history books, these astonishing true stories uncover a rich queer heritage that encompasses every culture, in every era.

By turns hilarious and inspiring, the beautifully illustrated Queer, There, and Everywhere is for anyone who wants the real story of the queer rights movement.

A Junior Library Guild Selection

Meet the incredible people history tried to erase:

  • Secret Histories Revealed: Discover the intimate male friendships of figures like Abraham Lincoln and the private lives of icons like Eleanor Roosevelt.
  • Global Trailblazers: Journey from ancient China and imperial Rome to twentieth-century San Francisco to meet activists, artists, and royalty who defied the norms of their time.
  • Gender Identity Pioneers: Read about a gender-ambiguous Swedish queen, a cross-dressing Civil War soldier, and one of the first people to undergo gender affirming surgery.
  • Accessible and Empowering: Written in a fun, conversational tone that makes history pop, perfect for young adult readers and anyone curious about the real story of queer rights.
