"Informative and expansive, the narrative is laced with glorious anecdotes, inclusive political comment, a respect for history and a real love of humanity."

"Many places and times have set the foundation for American Gay Rights.  Lou was there living through it."

"My experience with your book has been emotional to say the least.  Some of the reading was thru tears of sadness, some thru tears of joy.  The journey is so beautifully described, honestly & heartfelt.  I am so proud to be a gay man.  Thank you."

"Thank you for taking me on an amazing ride through your life.  As a naive straight woman I had no awareness of the prejudices gay people suffer.  Your book tells a story we all need to hear - gay or straight!"
