About this product

Product Information

A Class Apart is a selection of photographs and letters culled from the archive of Montague Glover (1898-1983), documenting the intimate, rarely recorded lives of gay men in Britain from the First World War to the 1950s. The book features Glover's three obsessions: the Armed Forces, working class men, and his lifelong lover Ralph Hall. A seamless blend of the personal and the historical make A Class Apart a unique portrait of a secret relationship and of an undiscovered period in British gay history.

Think of it as buried treasure: two cardboard boxfuls of dusty negatives and yellowed letters, the only surviving evidence of love between two Englishmen who had spent more than half a century together...This is social history at its most personal and vivid

Amazing price for this book which was described as used, but like new, and indeed arrived in perfect condition. Item description was spot on and in fact this book could have been sold as new. Fast shipping as well. This was a rather heavy art book and the seller did a great job of packing it securely so that it arrived in perfect condition and free of damage. Well done and I would absolutely buy again from this seller.

Firstly I need to say supporting a public library is so important for the people of today and the future. Now about the book I purchased. The book was in 'as new' condition and the description of the book was excellent. The communication from the seller was also excellent, especially regarding the process of shipment internationally. The book was packaged excellently for a rough, uncompromising internationally journey were care by the courier companies is not a high priority. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  • will appeal to a very limited audience.

    the photographs are disturbing as well as insightful. One fells a bit of an intruder. The images are a bit personal for public viewing.
