Stonewall marked a generational, organizational, and ideological
shift that brought gay liberation into the array of social
protest."--The New York Times Book Review "Illuminating...a vivid
and stirring recreation of the Stonewall riot, probing beneath its
symbolism to discover the social forces it unleashed."--Los Angeles

since Stonewall."--Seattle Weekly "Moving...Duberman rises to

long and tortuous the road to Stonewall actually was."--The

harder for future 'sixties' books to ignore the gay liberation
movement."--The Nation

to tell the story of Stonewall."--The Advocate "Duberman's history
lesson is like a script to some extraordinary movie...It even has a
