The title is misleading. This book is not so much about Stonewall but about the history prior to Stonewall. I would estimate the stonewall takes up the last 25% of the book. There is missing history in this book that I read about from other, better books. I really just feel like the author hated the people involved. Stonewall was definitely a secondary or tertiary part of this book, he probably should've named it something else.

Massive Trigger warnings for just about everything sexual abuse, child abuse, emotional abuse, violence on and on. I really wanted to read about Stonewall, I wish I'd picked another book.

Incredibly informative, very intersectional, but easy to read, which is not a trait that a lot of historical books have.
