Summary: very interesting book
Comment: I was deeply disappointed when I received and opened this book, since I had expected a more comprehensive encyclopedia of the topic. However, the book contains only famous and European people with the exception of very few entries like Jesus, Hafiz, David and Jonathan. I couldn't find so many renowned Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Arabian, Persian, Turkish "Gay & Lesbian" people ! In addition, it lacks lots of celebrated Occidental persons, like the Roman emperor Galba, Juan 2nd of Castilla, Rudolph 2nd of Holy Roman empire or so , et descriptions of some items are not very detailed ----- e.g. in "Jesus" of Nazareth, there are no mention of his "the beloved" desciple, Johannes evangelistes, Lazarus, or Johannes Marcus, ..... , but also the author did not refer to "Secret Gospel of Mark" at all, as if Jesus was heterosexual. Hence, I think the editors should name the book "Who's Who in Famous Western Gay & Lesbian History". Nevertheless it is a very interesting and readable book not only for gay & lesbian people, but for bisexual/ heterosexual inclined men and women.
