Critics Review

“I was privileged to participate in the play 8 by Dustin Lance Black, about the legal fight for the right to marry for two couples. In giving voice and rights to their truth, it gave hope and rights to others. This wonderful book is a chronicle of all those efforts. I am excited for others, through this book, to bear witness to this powerful, life-changing combining of love.”—JAMIE LEE CURTIS“This book honors seven decades of courage, love, and determination by the LGBTQ+ community. These stories are a powerful and triumphant roadmap for future generations to protect marriage equality.”—GAVIN NEWSOM, Governor of California“Like the famous quote from my wife, Edie Windsor, ‘Don’t postpone joy,’ this ‘joyous’ book is filled with glorious LGBTQ+ love stories through the ages.”—JUDITH KASEN-WINDSOR“I’ve never been happier to lose something. This beautiful book celebrates the many heroes who shared their stories and, as a result,changed hearts, minds, and our nation.”—RICHARD HODGES, respondent, Obergefell v. Hodges
