Female Husbands by Jen Manion

A really great book setting the groundwork for how to discuss those in history who transed gender, but who we may disagree on attaching identity labels to.

I think the thematic framing let this book down a bit - with such sparse biographies, it felt hard to keep track of an individual within a chapter/across a chapter. I would've liked their stories laid out as cohesively as possible.
