Martin Duberman’s landmark history reconstructs the events surrounding the 1969 Stonewall uprising through the lives of six people involved in the emerging gay and lesbian liberation movement. Combining archival research, oral history and biography, the book places the uprising within the wider social and political conditions that produced it.

First published in 1993, Stonewall remains an important account of a defining moment in modern queer history and the development of organised LGBTQ rights activism in the United States.
