Book excerpt: A Little Gay History of Wales is the first book-length historical examination of LGBT activism in Wales laying out the campaign for equality in the twentieth century, the campaigns against Section 28, student and community activism, and recent developments such as Stonewall Cymru. It is an example of pioneering archival research, drawing on never-before studied records which charts the lives of ordinary LGBT men and women across Wales. It also features wide-ranging historical analysis stretching from the medieval period through to the modern-day, providing guides to changing language, places where LGBT people met and socialised, and their day-to-day experiences of coming out, threats of persecution, and acceptance.
