About this book

Public surveillance and the threat of exposure shaped the lives of gay men in midcentury America. This historical study opens with Laud Humphreys’s research and the risks faced by men whose private lives attracted police attention. It examines an atmosphere in which arrest, newspaper identification, and scrutiny from employers or neighbors could turn ordinary social contact into a serious personal danger.
