"The Encyclopedia is a thorough, well-researched and for the most
part impressive collection of notes on the who, what, where, why,
and when of lesbians...The cross-cultural entries are some of the
best I've seen in a project of this nature. For those entries
alone, the Encyclopedia would be a fruitful addition to any home."
