Uncover the Hidden Truths of a Forgotten Era.

Beneath the grandeur of the Victorian age lies a tapestry of stories rarely told—of queer lives erased, voices silenced, and rebels punished for stepping outside the bounds of respectability. The Lost Lives of the 19th Century invites readers into the shadows of history to rediscover figures who dared to live authentically, love defiantly, and resist quietly in a world that refused to see them.

From the encoded diaries of Anne Lister to the trials of Stella and Fanny, this compelling work of narrative nonfiction restores dignity to lives consigned to the margins. With elegant prose and meticulous research, the book examines how race, gender, class, and sexuality shaped who was remembered—and who was forgotten.

Perfect for readers of queer history, social justice, and hidden archives, The Lost Lives of the 19th Century is a moving tribute to resilience, remembrance, and the quiet power of bearing witness.
