The Crimson Letter: Harvard, Homosexuality, and the Shaping of American CultureSt. Martin's Publishing Group, 2004年6月1日 - 416 頁 In a book deeply impressive in its reach while also deeply embedded in its storied setting, bestselling historian Douglass Shand-Tucci explores the nature and expression of sexual identity at America's oldest university during the years of its greatest influence.
