Summary: If you can handle the lingo go for it
Comment: The Leatherman's Handbook is truely remarkable. This book being published back in the 70's, has some strange lingo. I found it to be a bit funny myself. This book uses stories to illustrate the chapter topic. For a portion of the chapter Larry talks about the topic and then goes into "story telling" mode. During the later he tells of expriences he has had in relation to the topic. Lots of good information here and gives a good look at "Old Guard" thought.

If it weren't for the lingo I would give it a 5 star rating.

Rating: 3
Summary: Fanciful Fiction
Comment: The title should suggest it all, book for sale discussing matters that would never be put into print by the people discussed -- i.e. hand-book. There were some interesting anecdotes and kinda interesting reading about BDSM, but should be considered complete fiction or fantasy novel.

Rating: 4
Summary: the theory, philosophy, and real life practice of Gay BDSM
Comment: A good introduction to the gay male SM world of the early 1970s revised briefly for the 2000 edition. It gives a good basic overview of the history of "Old Guard" as well as insights into how different from and similar to gay SM is from het SM. There are some odd digressions and a bit too much focusing on why women and hets are in the book (why would they be? this is a book about gay male SM!). Still useful for everyone who does BDSM with a male though if you are too homophobic.
