Summary:

"From the planner of the city on the Potomac River, to generations of gay women who fought for the ratification of the 19th Amendment, through the 1980's when people covered the Mall with a quilt in order to finally hear politicians utter the word AIDS, Washington has a place in the identity of gay and lesbian America, which continues even now in the fight for marriages equal under the law and in the heart.--Publisher description." -- (Source of summary not specified)
