Transgender History: The Roots of Today's Revolution by Susan Stryker

4.5
Transgender History compiles the history of transgender identities as well as the importance of including transgender people in modern-day activism. This was my first experience with feminist/queer literature, and I really have not looked back since. This book introduced me to a wonderful movement and complex history that means a lot to me even today. Since the latest addition was released in 2017, it could be somewhat outdated, but I still think it is a good introduction if you want to learn more about trans history.
