In this path-breaking history of manhood and masculinity, Angus McLaren examines how nineteenth- and twentieth-century western society created what we now take to be the traditional model of the heterosexual male. Inherently interesting. . . . Exhibitionism, pornography, and deception all have their place here.--Library Journal An appealing wealth of evidence of what trials can reveal about the boundaries of men's roles around the turn of the century.--Kirkus Reviews It is difficult to imagine a better guide to the most notorious scandals of our great-grandparents' day.--Graham Rosenstock, Lambda Book Report
