Examining case studies, each a micro history of a particular colonial situation and a sexual encounter, this is a thorough investigation of the connections of homosexuality and imperialism from the late 1800s until the era of decolonization.
Robert Aldrich teaches European and colonial history at the University of Sydney. He is the author of The Seduction of the Mediterranean (1993) and coeditor of Who's Who in Gay and Lesbian History and Who's Who in ContemporaryGay and Lesbian History (both published in 2001).
Praise for this book
'Aldrich writes in an accessible and engaging style and provides a wide-ranging and interesting study ... this rich study is a worthwhile contribution to the growing literature on sexuality, gender and imperialism.' - History
