Masculinity, Class and Same-Sex Desire in Industrial England, 1895-1957 cover

Masculinity, Class and Same-Sex Desire in Industrial England, 1895-1957 explores the experiences of men who desired other men outside of the capital. In doing so, it offers a unique intervention into the history of sexuality but it also offers new ways to understand masculinity, working-class culture, regionality and work in the period.

“The book offers significant depth and engagement on the issues of sexuality, class and masculinity in industrial England between 1895 and 1957 … . this is a rich, accessible and important contribution to our understanding of same-sex desire, class and masculinity in Britain.” (Jeffrey Meek, Twentieth Century British History, Vol. 28 (1), March, 2017)
