From Female to Male- the life of Jack Bee Garland by acclaimed transsexual author Lou Sullivan chronicles the life and experience of Jack Bee Garland, an author, nurse, and adventurer who lived during the turn of the 20th century. Garland was known for having romantic and erotic relationships with other men, and Sullivan makes note of this, as during the time of the book's publishing, it was thought that FTM individuals only transition to satisfy their desire to achieve heterosexuality. Garland was also notable for fighting in the Philippine-American War.


This biography by Sullivan is the quintessential look into Jack Bee Garland's life, as well as an early recorded example of a trans man explicitly having relationships with other men.
