Transgender Warriors : Making History from Joan of Arc to Dennis Rodman Paperback – Illustrated, June 30, 1997 by Leslie Feinberg (Author). This is the Rare First Edition Trade Paperback from 1996

Transgender Warriors is an essential read for trans people of all ages who want to learn about the towering figures who have come before them—and for everyone who is part of the fight for trans liberation

This groundbreaking book—far ahead of its time when first published in 1996 and still galvanizing today—interweaves history, memoir, and gender studies to show that transgender people, far from being a modern phenomenon, have always existed and have exerted their influence throughout history. Leslie Feinberg—hirself a lifelong transgender revolutionary—reveals the origin of the check-one-box-only gender system and shows how zie found empowerment in the lives of transgender warriors around the world, from the Two Spirits of the Americas to the many genders of India, from the trans shamans of East Asia to the gender-bending Queen Nzinga of Angola, from Joan of Arc to Marsha P. Johnson and beyond.

Transgender Warriors is not only a moving personal account, it breaks both new historical and new theoretical ground. Feinberg shows that the suppression of transgender history has rendered invisible the links between class and gender oppression. She calls on all of us to wield the emerging recognition of transgender warriors throughout history as a weapon in the struggle to make the world a safer and better place for people of all sexes, genders, and desires. Read this book!"
