Produktbeschreibung

The 1930s was a time when being openly gay would frequently lead to prosecution and imprisonment. One such place was the Caravan Club, 'London's most bohemian rendezvous', a queer-friendly members club of 1934. Published to accompany the re-creation of the Caravan Club in March 2017 by the National Trust and The National Archives, this guidebook tells the important stories of many similar clandestine LGBTQ+ spaces that were raided and closed by police throughout the city. The guidebook also includes photographs, court reports, police papers and witness statements on The Caravan and other clubs of the era. Selected from The National Archives' extensive collection, these documents reveal great detail and insights into club culture and the everyday prejudices facing the homosexual community at the time.
