Description
Against the Law by Peter Wildeblood In 1954, Peter Wildeblood was one of five men charged with homosexual acts in the notorious Montagu case. This event marked a turning point in his life and had far-reaching consequences for those like him. This memoir tells the story of Wildeblood's childhood, war service, career as a journalist, arrest, trial, and imprisonment. With honesty and restraint, it offers a powerful account of the inhumanity faced by gay men in Britain within living memory. A poignant and thought-provoking read, Against the Law is a testament to the enduring struggle for equality and acceptance.
