{"product_id":"one-of-the-boys-paul-jackson-9780773537149","title":"One of the Boys: Homosexuality in the Military During World War II, Second Edition","description":"Using a wide array of sources - including long-closed court martial records, psychiatric and personnel files, unit war diaries, films, and oral histories - Paul Jackson relates the struggle of queer servicemen of all ranks and branches of the Canadian military to fit in to avoid losing their careers and reputations. He argues that even though homosexual men were often accepted and popular within their units, if they were accused of homosexual behaviour, they were subjected to psychiatric assessments, courts-martial proceedings, prison terms, and dishonourable discharges. An influential and eye-opening study, the author has updated this critically acclaimed work with a new preface that considers depictions of soldiers serving in the war in Afghanistan and the continued silence about homosexual servicemen and women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Jackson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0773537147\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780773537149\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 376\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d","brand":"Paul Jackson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926008135935,"sku":"9780773537149","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_8e292633-7342-4752-9d73-f0b1bc90629a.jpg?v=1681080656","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/one-of-the-boys-paul-jackson-9780773537149","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
