Opis

THE TUNIC OF NESSUS is the English translation of Georges Portal's groundbreaking work, UN PROTESTANT. UN PROTESTANT was published in Paris by Denoel and Steele in 1936. It is Portal's courageous and honest accounting of being gay when homosexuality was regarded as an illness in many countries and was illegal in many others. This important work was translated from French into English by Eric Wensleydale (a pseudonym) and was published as THE TUNIC OF NESSUS in Paris in 1938. The book is too historically important to be hidden away in only four libraries worldwide. The targets for this handsack press facsimile are the copy held by the W. Bruce Frye History of Medicine Library of the Mayo Clinic, the copy held by the Beinecke Library of Yale University, and the copy held by the publisher.
