All Books by David Deitcher -
Author of : Dear Friends : American Photographs of Men Together, 1840-1918 Hardcover - 160 pages (May 2001) Harry N Abrams; ISBN: 0810957124 "Gay Photography and Art; Lifestyle/Culture; This groundbreaking book presents rarely seen photographs that provide an entirely fresh perspective on male friendship in the 19th century. The poignant images in more than 100 early photographs, drawn from public and private collections, suggest a surprisingly broad-minded attitude toward physical intimacy between men, challenging the conventional view of the Victorian era as more inhibited than our own. Deitcher’s provocative text—combining history, social observation, pictorial analysis, and personal reflection—explores the nature of that same-sex affection and the meaning such pictures can hold for us today."

All Books by John
Ibson - Author of : Picturing Men: A Century of Male Relationships in Everyday
American Photography Hardcover: 272 pages - (September 2002) Smithsonian Institution Press; ISBN: 1588340554 ~*~ Featured Book Review ~*~ "Gay Studies/History; Photography; These photographs, spanning from before the Civil War to the 1950s, reveal a lost world. They show men comfortably sitting on each other's laps, embracing, holding hands, and expressing their various relationships through countless examples of simple physical contact. Rather than imposing contemporary notions of sexuality by assuming the images only illustrate a portion of the gay past, John Ibson returns them to their own time to examine what they meant to the subjects. His perspective unearths a hidden aspect of American men's history. His analysis focuses on the history of male intimacy and how these everyday photographs challenge conventional boundaries between erotic and platonic, homosexuality and heterosexuality. He explores the photos as symbols of male association from a time when America was far more gender-segregated than it is today, and men felt no anxiety about showing their affection for one another. The images present men of different ages, classes, and races in a range of settings: posed in photographers' studios, on beaches, in lumber camps, on farms, on ships, indoors and out. Ibson concludes his study with images from the 1950s, in which the men begin to show a rigid and limited set of expressions. All the photographs are being published here for the first time, and are drawn from Ibson's private collection of more than 5,000 images." Click to buy this book in USA, Canada, UK:

All Books by Christopher Makos -
Author of : Makos (Stonewall Inn Book/Photographer Series) Hardcover - 96 pages (July 1997) St. Martin's Press; ISBN: 0312152914 "Gay Photography and Art; Christopher Makos, once identified by Andy Warhol as "the most modern photographer in America," offers up a tasty collection of pretty boys in his fourth collection of pictures. His models are, as Bruce Hainley writes in the introduction, "really into being out of it," and it's not always clear from the expressions on his subjects' faces whether they're way into themselves or oblivious to everything around them while they hone their bodies. It's that attractive vacuity that Makos captures so effectively in his stark compositions." Click to buy this book in USA, Canada, UK:
