Content:
An irreverent graphic novel biography of the iconic Barney Frank, one of the first gay and out congressmen and a frontline defender of civil rights. With the wit and sass of its subject, "Smahtguy" traces the path of an unlikely gay and civil rights crusader, one of America's first out members of Congress. A funny, beautifully rendered warts-and-all account, this book is at once a history of gay emancipation and a window into the inner workings of Boston and DC politics, laid bare in all their down-and-dirty detail. Author Eric Orner, Frank's longtime staff counsel and press secretary, lends his firsthand perspective to a work that honors an indespensable LGBTQ pioneer and a legislative hero of our age. --
