Queer, there, and everywhere : 27 people who changed the world / by Sarah Prager ; illustrations by Zoë More O'Ferrall.
"World history has been made by countless lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals--and you've likely never heard of many of them. Queer author and activist Sarah Prager delves deep into the lives of 27 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." -- Publisher description.
