DESCRIPTION:
Quite a change from the 1960s, when a local pastor was run out of town when it was discovered that he was gay. But one thing is still missing from Palm Springsa history of the city's transformation from a winter family resort town into a year-round, world-famous gay destination.. Today, Palm Springs' gay-owned businesses are flourishing, and even the Palm Springs Art Museum cashes in by hosting gay fundraising events
Five Stars enjoyed rerading it. Not worth the time False advertising. Little more than a statement of some fact/ some speculation about celebrities of the past, with very little about the development of what has become the modern Palm Springs. You might as well read the National Enquirer or something of that ilk; and the literary quality would be about the same.
