This authoritative reference guide covers the first twelve years of the organized homophile/gay liberation movement in Canada, from 1964 (when the Association for Social Knowledge [ASK], Canada's first large-scale homophile organization, was formed in Vancouver) through 1975 (the year of the founding of the National Gay Rights Coalition [NGRC], the first truly national coalition of Canadian lesbian and gay groups). Each entry in the chronology is combined with a brief bibliography of sources. Coverage is selective and focuses on self-declared lesbians and gay men and their activities in regard to the forging of lesbian and gay communities and liberation in Canada. Special attention has been given to important demonstrations, political action and lobbying, and legal reform. In addition, artistic and cultural contributions with significant lesbian or gay content are included, such as books, dramatic productions, films etc. Three appendices provide supplementary information.

Donald W. McLeod, MLS, is head, book and serials acquisitions, University of Toronto Libraries, as well as the Canadiana and gender studies selector. He has volunteered for many years as an archivist at the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives. His publications include 'Lesbian and Gay Liberation in Canada: A selected Annotated Chronology, 1964-1975' (1996), 'Challenging the Conspiracy of Silence: My LIfe as a Canadian Gay Activist' (by Jim Egan, compiled and edited by Donald W. McLeod; 1998), and 'A Brief History of GAY, Canada's First Gay Tabloid, 1964-1966' (2002). McLeod has considerable experience working as an academic editor, first as the managing editor of ECW Press for eight years, and since 2000 as the editor of the 'Devils's Artisan: A Journal of the Printing Arts' (published by the Porcupine's Quill).
