Where exactly is queer England? There has been much discussion of
London as a queer city, but what about the many thousands of queer
lives lived elsewhere? From Manchester's bars and nightclubs, to
Brighton's seafront, the attractions of Leeds to the dockside
delights of Plymouth, in Queer Beyond London two leading LGBTQ
historians will take you on a journey through four cities with rich
and diverse queer histories. They show how geography, size,
economy, city government and local history and culture shaped LGBTQ
life in these places, each city forging a vibrant queer culture of
its own. Using the pioneering community histories that have been
produced in each of these cities, and including the voices of queer
people who have made their lives there, the book tells local
stories to change our national history. -- .
