520    "Forty years in the making, [this work] sets forth Larry 
       Kramer's vision of his homeland ... In this first volume, 
       which runs up to the 1950s, we meet prehistoric monkeys 
       who spread a peculiar virus; a Native American shaman 
       whose sexual explorations mutate into occult visions; and 
       early English settlers who establish loving same-sex 
       couples only to fall prey to the forces of bigotry. George
       Washington and Alexander Hamilton revel in unexpected 
       intimacies, and John Wilkes Booth's motives for 
       assassinating Abraham Lincoln are thoroughly revised. In 
       the twentieth century, the nightmare of history deepens as
       a religious sect conspires with eugenicists, McCarthyites,
       and Ivy Leaguers to exterminate homosexuals and the AIDS 
       virus begins to spread"--|cProvided by publisher.
