Extensive analysis of Nazi-era media across the political spectrum shows how the public debate over homosexuality proved just as important to political outcomes as did the actual presence of homosexuals in fascist and antifascist politics. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs children in the late-imperial period, the stormtroopers witnessed the first German debates over homosexuality and political life. As young adults, they verbally and physically battled over these definitions, bringing conflicts over homosexuality and masculinity into the center of Weimar Germany's most important political debates. \u003ci\u003eStormtrooper Families\u003c\/i\u003e chronicles the stormtroopers' personal, political, and sexual struggles to explain not only how individual gay men existed within the Nazi movement but also how the public meaning of homosexuality affected fascist and antifascist politics--a public controversy still alive today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Wackerfuss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1939594049\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781939594044\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harrington Park Press, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2016","brand":"Andrew Wackerfuss","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48459664294143,"sku":"9781939594044","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11d8f930-92f1-4631-8536-b2c5afee0c33.jpg?v=1777411118","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stormtrooper-families-andrew-wackerfuss-9781939594044","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
