The art of drag

Hall, Jake (author.). Birkin, Sofie, (illustrator.). Li, Helen, (illustrator.). Hans, Jasjyot Singh, (illustrations.).

Summary: "The history of drag has been formed by many intersections: fashion, theatre, sexuality and politics--all coming together to create the show stopping entertainment millions witness today. In this extensive work, Jake Hall delves deep into the ancient beginnings of drag, to present day and beyond. Vibrant illustrations enhance the rich history from Kabuki theatre to Shakespearean, the revolutionary Stonewall riots to the still thriving New York ballroom scene. Nothing will go undocumented in this must-have documentation of all things drag."--Amazon.
