In this fascinating, personal journey through history, Leslie Feinberg uncovers persuasive evidence that there have always been people who crossed the cultural boundaries of gender. Transgender Warriors is an eye-opening jaunt through the history of gender expression and a powerful testament to the rebellious spirit.

Feinberg's writing is energising and accessible as ever. A resonating history of humanity, and a clear-sighted view of interlocking struggles against the capitalist class.
Read it! Some slightly questionable history but it is very well sourced for the most part and honestly nothing the vast majority of popular historians don't do, also the purpose of this book is not to provide a history of the world, it just looks at it through a trans lens and this it does really, really well. The historical bits (which are great) are interspersed with Feinberg's own story as well as testimonials (I guess you would describe them as?) by many individuals (these bits are great too). So read it.
