Sommario/riassunto: | In this path-breaking history of manhood and masculinity, Angus McLaren examines how nineteenth- and twentieth-century western society created what we now take to be the traditional model of the heterosexual male.

Exhibitionism, pornography, and deception all have their place here."-Library Journal "An appealing wealth of evidence of what trials can reveal about the boundaries of men's roles around the turn of the century."-Kirkus Reviews "It is difficult to imagine a better guide to the most notorious scandals of our great-grandparents' day."-Graham Rosenstock, Lambda Book Report |
