Amos Abernathy lives for history. Literally. Hes been a historical reenactor nearly all his life. But when a cute new volunteer arrives at his Living History Park, Amos finds himself wondering if theres something missing from history: someone like the two of them.
Amos is sure there must have been LGBTQ+ people in nineteenth-century Illinois. His search turns up Albert D. J. Cashier, a Civil War soldier who might have identified as a trans man if hed lived today. Soon Amos starts confiding in his newfound friend by writing letters in his journaland hatches a plan to share Alberts story with his divided twenty-first century town. It may be an uphill battle, but its one that Amos is ready to fight.
Told in an earnest, hilarious voice, this love letter to history, first crushes, and LGBTQ+ community will delight readers of Ashley Herring Blake, Alex Gino, or Maulik Pancholy.
