Transgender Warriors

Transgender Warriors: Making History from Joan of Arc to Dennis Rodman, published in 1996, is an autobiographical popular history by transgender activist and author Leslie Feinberg. Feinberg is best known for her novel Stone Butch Blues. In Transgender Warriors, she discusses people who have crossed sex and gender boundaries in various places from ancient times to present day. It was one of the first books to articulate a trans-historical understanding of transgender identity and argue for the inclusion of gender nonconforming people throughout history.
