Very Entertaining and informative
I bought this primarily for the historical aspect and also as it was recommended by the artist Tee Corinne in her book `Intimacies'. From the book description - This history of homoerotic art spans three millennia and explores traditions in Western, Middle-Eastern, and Asian cultures. In addition to celebrating glorious paintings and photographs, art professor Saslow illustrates the ways in which degrading images of gay men and lesbians have been used to infiltrate societies with negative assumptions of homosexuality. A groundbreaking work of nuanced scholarship encompassing all genres in all ages on gay themes. 145 illustrations, 32 in color.

A good complement to my collection of books about art and homosexuality, great time lapse and good illustrations (most in B/W).

Not worth your time
Some pictures but many are taken out of context and are not what the author believes them to be. There are many better examples that could prove the authors ideas but perhaps they were not publishable. Very disappointing purchase but cheap so it makes sense now.

Gay Artistic History of the Gay World through Time
Learned much from this book. Any gay scholar no matter what section of scholarship the person needs this for his book collection, I feel very luck to buy it. I thank Amazon for caring a tremendous amount of subject matter that no small book shop could incude.
