Description:
New York:: Stein & Day,, (1971). Hardcover first edition -. Very near fine in orange boards with red cloth spine in a near fine dustjacket (minor edgewear to dj). Hard to find in the first edition, and especially in this condition. . First printing. The third novel by this early and important gay activist, one of the founders in 1950 of the Mattachine society. In 1952, he was one of the first to contest an arrest for allegedly soliciting a police officer in a toilet in Westlake Park in Los Angeles (he was acquitted), a decision which brought a greater awareness of the Gay Rights Movement. This novel was based on his screen treatment which had been sold to Warner Brothers for a film featuring John Wayne (the cover photo on the dust jacket is from Warner Brothers), although the novel caused some controversy due to suggestions of homoeroticism. Set in 1877 in the Montana-Wyoming cattle country, this is the story of a cattleman who hires the only "men" left in town, after news of a gold…

Description:
New York: Stein and Day, 1971. First printing. Fine in near-fine jacket.. Signed first edition of the Western by the gay rights icon, written as a companion to the film treatment for what would become the acclaimed movie starring John Wayne. Jennings was one of the founders of the Mattachine Society, one of the earliest gay rights organizations in the United States; after his arrest for allegedly soliciting a police officer in 1952, Jennings's decision to pursue a highly publicized trial (rather than a quiet plea deal) brought a wider awareness of the Gay Rights Movement: "the Mattachine members took elaborate precautions to keep their identities secret. Thus it was Mr. Jennings whose courage made him a permanent icon - and the infant movement's first hero" (Clendinen). Jennings continued to be an active participant in the Gay Rights Movement, especially as a writer. Even after selling a film treatment of the COWBOYS, Jennings ran into obstacles finding a publisher because of the book's homoerotic…
