[The true story of a convicted murderer on death row who changed his sex and won her freedom. This is the story of Leslie Douglas Ashley/Leslie Elaine Perez, who received an 11th hour reprieve on death row, had his conviction overturned, and then, with his mothers money, had a sex change and went on to become an AIDS activist for ACT-UP/ Houston. This is her incredible story.]

[Bolin's book was long overdue and has unfortunately been underappreciated by clinicians. Her doctoral thesis, which grew into this book, was a study of a group of male-to-female transsexual persons in the midwest, whom she observed in a non-clinical setting. Her findings clearly show the bias and shortsightedness of much of the clinical literature, and some serious problems with a treatment paradigm in which transsexual persons mold themselves to sexist notions or perceived sexist notions of clinicians in order to obtain treatment.]

[This is a well-researched and footnoted work, the most complete on crossdressing since Hirschfeld's Die Transvestiten, written in 1910. In the first half, the authors take a historical approach, examining both crossdressing and notions of gender through the ages. In the second half, they look at nineteen- and twentieth- century crossdressing phenomena, including transsexualism (but the major focus is on crossdressing). Several chapters explore the personality of heterosexual crossdressers, and one chapter examines the research on female partners of crossdressers. A very thorough and insightful work. (References appear at the end of chapters.)]

[Autobiography of Caroline Cossey, also known as "Tula," the British fashion model whose transsexualism was brutally revealed in News of the World with the headline "Bond girl was a boy." Cossey tells of her unsuccessful efforts to obtain the right to marry in the UK and her determination to continue her fight until she obtains that right. There are parallels in her life to that of April Ashley, who also worked as a model, appeared in films, was exposed by the press, and had a court battle, but Cossey, admirably (and unlike April Ashley), refuses to kiss and tell.

Cummings, K. (1992). Katherine's diary: The story of a transsexual. Port Melbourne, Australia: William Heinemann.
[The author considers her transsexualism to be "secondary"; that is, to have developed rather late in life. For many years she considered herself a crossdresser. At least as much space is devoted to her description of her career as a librarian as to her transsexual career. She is from and has primarily resided in Australia, but was in the U.S. during the early days of organized crossdressing, and it is interesting to read her description of events which are also covered in Darrell Raynor's A year among the girls, Virginia Prince's autobiograhy in issue no. 100 of Transvestia magazine, and H.G. Beigel's 1969 article, "A weekend in Alice's Wonderland." Cummings can be seen in old issues of Transvestia; she used the name Fiona, which she later changed to Katherine.
Cummings had sex reassignment surgery in 1989, but it is clear from her last several chapters that at the time of writing, she was far from resolving her feelings about her failed marriage: "Early in 1991 I offered to return without conditions to the family as John, since I would rather live with Diana as John than without her as Kate. Does this mean I am not a real transsexual? I don't think so. It simply means I have two very strong emotional ties in my life, one to Diana, and the other to Katherine. My ideal life would still be to live as Katherine with Diana in loving friendship but, of the alternatives, my love for Diana is stronger than my love for Katherine."]

Both (Thompson, and Hewitt) are ghost written which is perhaps unfortuante in the way they have been edited, and the way the emphasis is. However Ray Thompson's book is an excellent account of being a FTM who has a hard time, and ends up on the wrong side of the law, in prison etc. Paul's is much more a diary account of the actual process of transition. Both are members of the UK FTM network. (commentary by Stephen Whittle)]

[This remarkable book, written in 1910, was translated only in 1991. Had it been available in English earlier, it would no doubt have had a big impact on American thinking about transvestism and transsexualism. Hirschfeld gives a number of case histories of men and a few women who crossdress. Some appear to indeed be transvestites, but others seem more likely to have been transsexual. The author examines crossdressing from a variety of angles. The translator did an excellent job. Footnotes. Introduction by Vern Bullough.]

The author, a crossdresser, wrestled with his religion and crossdressing, and began a search for answers and a reconciliation with faith in God. This book shares those answers. Many references to Biblical and theological source texts are provided to the reader.]

Tremain, Rose. SACRED COUNTRY.
(Washington Square Press/Pocket Books)
[I don't read very many novels for two reasons. First, I don't have much time for leisure reading. Second, very few interest me enough to get past the first few pages. So this summer when a friend asked me if I'd read (this) book, I replied "no, and I probably won't." She handed it to me anyway and said, "read this," indicating the blurbs on the back. I can't say it any better, so I quote:
"On February 15, 1952, as England observes two minutes of silence in honor of the dead King, Mary Ward, age six, realizes with perfect clarity her true identity: 'I have a secret to tell you, dear, and this is it: I am not Mary. That is a mistake. I am not a girl. I'm a boy.'
"Mary's fight to become Martin, society's hypocrisy, and its abundant left-of-center characters are the core of this remarkable and intimate novel. _Sacred Country_ spans three decades, from the repressive English countryside of the fifties to the swinging London of the sixties and the rhinestone tackiness of seventies America. Emotional yet unsentimental, as daring and inventive as Virginia Woolf's _Orlando_, _Sacred Country_ inspires us to reconsider the essence of gender, and proposes new insights in unraveling that timeless malady known as the human condition -- insights certain to touch and possible even unmask the 'sacred country' within us all."
It is a remarkable novel that accurately captures without unnecessary angst what it is to be FTM. I rarely read a novel a second time, but I will this one. I highly recommend it. (commentary by Jason Cromwell)]

Valerio, Max Wolf. THE JOKER IS WILD!. (William Morrow in hardback, Avon paperback, due out late 1996) FTM autobiography.
[The author comments on his work:
The Joker is Wild! is about passion, identity and exploration. It's about changing sex as risk and adventure. I am a poet and writer as well as performer and this book is the story of my odessey of self discovery BOTH as a creative voice AND as a transsexual man. The Joker is Wild! traces my journey to manhood, physically, spiritually, psychologically, sexually. I take the reader through the guts of the transition, I want them to experience a "sex change" themselves. They'll be lots of wacky humor, pop culture, sex, rock and roll, poetry, as much perversion as the editor will let me cram in, also drugs, visions, and playful irreverance. I'll have a tight focus on sexual politics, especially the always confusing, exciting relations between men and women. I'll explore the slippery yet enduring nature of sexual/gender identity.
Having lived through this transition first hand, I feel that there are unique insights that transsexuals have to offer the rest of the world. My values have changed dramatically in the past six and a half years that I have lived as male. I've gone from an alienated lesbian feminist to a heterosexual man who has been branded by some lesbian feminists as "a militant heterosexual." How did this happen and what does it mean? Is it true? (ROFL) What kinds of questions does this journey answer about the nature of maleness and femaleness? What aspects of any person's experience and perceptions of men and women (male and female) are socially constructed and which aspects are biologically based? How am I treated differently and how does this affect how I act and what my values are?
This is the transsexual man remade as agent provocateur of sexual culture, a thief of technology for self discovery.]

Williams, W. L. 1986. The Spirit and the Flesh: Sexual Diversity in American Indian Culture. Boston, Beacon Press.
[Williams, an anthropologist, looks at berdache, Native Americans who filled a role some have likened to transsexualism. Williams does agree that Berdache have a feminine gender identity, but he believes homosexuality to be a closer, although still not accurate model. Berdache is an institutionalized social role, somewhere between men and women, as is (literally) seen in Plate 10. A significant portion of the book concerns the impact of European immigrants on berdache (they were often abused or murdered). There is also a chapter on masculine women (Williams calls them Amazons).
Williams notes that his identity as a gay man helped in his collection of information. I would argue that this same identity causes him to categorize the same-sex sexual activity of the berdache as homosexuality; Tinechan Egan (personal communication) calls this gay imperialism. Descriptions of Berdache becoming upset if their genitalia were manipulated by their male lovers sound more like transsexualism than like homosexuality. Transsexual persons often view their passive homosexual behavior as heterosexual (as they are actually women); I suspect this was the case with many Berdache. Illustrations, photographs, index.
