A graphic novel biography of Baron von SteubenÂ, the soldier,
immigrant, and flamboyant homosexual who influenced the course of
US history during the Revolutionary War despite being omitted from
our textbooksIn this graphic novel biography, author Josh Trujillo
and illustrator Levi Hastings tell the true story of one of the
most important, but largely forgotten, military leaders of the
American Revolution, Baron Von Steuben, who brought much-needed
knowledge to the inexperienced and ill-prepared Continental Army.
As its first Inspector General, Von Steuben created an
organizational framework for the US military, which included
writing the Blue Book guide that became the standard for training
American soldiers for more than a century. Von Steuben was also, by
all accounts, a flamboyant homosexual in an era when the term
didn’t even exist. Beginning with Von Steuben’s career in the
Prussian Army, Trujillo explores his recruitment by Benjamin
Franklin, his work alongside General George Washington at the
Battle of Valley Forge, and his eventual decline into obscurity. In
Washington’s Gay General, Trujillo and Hastings impart both the
intricacies of queer history and the importance of telling stories
that highlight queer experiences.
