""A persuasive tour de force of deserted histories."" Gerald Vizenor, author of Manifest Manners: Postindian Warriors of Survivance"" ""A work of erudition and detail."" Men and Masculinities"" ""Courageously original."" International History Review"" ""In its exposure of the links between sexual abuse of boys and the sexualized subordination of women, Sex and Conquest offers rare insight into gender inequality. Trexler's analysis of male dominance in sacred and secular hierarchies offers evidence and depth, as well as sweep and vision."" Catharine A. MacKinnon, author of Only Words"" ""Trexler weaves for us an impressive analysis of the presence of the berdache and the importance of gendered and sexualized violence in Iberian and Native societies."" The Committee on Gay and Lesbian History"" ""Trexler's work is a highly sophisticated analysis of the relation between eros and conquest, of the roles that societal violence imposes on some of the members of the community. . . . His book is doubtless not only the best study of the American berdache, but also a significant contribution to the understanding of the development of power and authority in human society."" American Historical Review"" ""A work of erudition and detail.""-Men and Masculinities ""Courageously original.""-International History Review
