The C A M P Guide To Sex And The Single Gay

Jackie Holmes, That Man from C.A.M.P., lays it on the line (with the help of chronicler Victor J. Banis)...to provide those seeking male gay partners and relationships with some basic advice on human psychology, sexuality, and social interaction. Jackie teaches the art of cruising while his dear friends swish through the nearby pages. Under the C.A.M.P. agent's ever-scrutinizing eyes, the belles and the aunties become instantly recognizable, and the Love Nest is seen for what it really is.

This is the definitive tongue-in-cheek guide to making (and sustaining) gay connections, now available for the first time in over four decades!

A legendary name from the Golden Age of Paperbacks, VICTOR J. BANIS spins a witty and exuberant tale of A Thousand and One Knights, flitting blithely from tale to tail, in one era and out the other. Part autobiography, part a history of the Gay Revolution, part writing manual, part juicy gossip, with a few tasty recipes thrown in for good measure, Spine Intact, Some Creases is a summing up -- alternately hilarious and touching, instructive and impassioned, and always entertaining -- of the remarkable life and work of a writer hailed by top gay pulp historian Michael Bronski as ?one of my heroes.? ?Banis' memoir provides a poignant history of West Coast paperback publishing in the Sixties, and one author's journey from small beginnings to critical and financial success as a writer -- but it's far more than that: witty, elegantly written, funny, sad, smart, and even wise. Every penman-apprentice should read this book -- twice!? -- Robert Reginald

That Man from C.A.M.P., Jackie Holmes, says: "If there's one subject almost certain to break the ice, and sometimes even bring things to a boiling point, it's the subject of Astrology. I touched upon it ever so briefly in Sex and the Single Gay, and was nearly deluged by remarks about my remarks. At this point I'm probably expected to make a ringing defense of the star system, or admit that it's all a put-on. Sorry, but I'm just not going to do either. The fact is, Astrology can be useful and awesomely accurate, but if taken in the wrong light, it can be a sheer farce. The stars impel, they don't compel. In other words, they nudge you into certain channels, but they don't force you." This witty guide to gay astrology, a book which has become a high-priced and -prized collector's edition, is now available for the first time in over four decades!

Theyre told that by the end of the week, theyll know more about sex than ninety percent of the population. What they go home with on the following Saturday is a lot more than they anticipated or were promised.
