Long before the make-better mavens of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy put their mark on mainstream culture, gay men have evinced a talent for collecting, organizing, renovating, and restoring that goes beyond mere gender stereotype. Fellows examines this tendency in this chronicle of queer pioneers in historic preservation, a concept at once original and yet so obvious it is surprising that no one has attempted it before. - Library Journal ""Compelling... stories and first-person accounts from gay men across the country... provide a colorful picture of a landscape that has not really been painted until now."" - The Advocate
