520    For the gays, lesbians, and transgendered people who have 
       moved to L.A. over the past two centuries, the City of 
       Angels has offered a special home--which, in turn, gave 
       rise to one of the world's most influential gay cultures. 
       Drawing upon untouched archives and over 200 new 
       interviews, Authors Faderman and Timmons chart L.A.'s 
       unique gay history, from the first missionary encounters 
       with Native American cross-gendered "two-spirits" to cross
       -dressing frontier women in search of their fortunes; from
       the bohemian freedom of early Hollywood to the explosion 
       of gay life during World War II to the underground 
       radicalism sparked by the 1950s blacklist; from the 1960s 
       gay liberation movement to the creation of gay marketing 
       in the 1990s. Faderman and Timmons show how geography, 
       economic opportunity, and a constant influx of new people 
       created a city that was more compatible to gay life than 
       any other in America.--From publisher description.
