Under the Rainbow is one of the few genuine gay classics, the moving account of a life that has bridged the gap between the world before Stonewall and the world after. From growing up gay in the fifties to his involvement in the early gay rights movement, Kantrowitz writes about his life in all its aspects with wit, candor, intelligence, and great deal of good feeling. Revised and with a new afterword, this will remain an essential book for generations to come.
