Ranging from the mid-19th century to the present, and from
Edinburgh to Plymouth, this powerful collection explores the
significance of locality in queer space and experiences in modern
British history. The chapters cover a broad range of themes from
migration, movement and multiculturalism; the distinctive queer
social and political scenes of different cities; and the ways in
which places have been reimagined through locally led community
history projects. The book challenges traditional LGBTQ histories
which have tended to conceive of queer experience in the UK as a
comprising a homogeneous, national narrative. Edited by leading
historians, the book foregrounds the voices of LGBTQ-identified
people by looking at a range of letters, diaries, TV interviews and
oral testimonies. It provides a unique and fascinating account of
queer experiences in Britain and how they have been shaped through
different localities.
