Menswear Mavericks takes readers on an immersive journey through the timeless pieces that have defined men’s fashion, blending historical roots with contemporary relevance. This book is a celebration of iconic garments, from rugged workwear and cowboy chic to military essentials and high-flying aviation styles. It offers an in-depth exploration of how each piece transcended its practical origins to become a staple in the wardrobes of style-conscious rebels, athletes, musicians, and adventurers alike. Beginning with the rough-hewn origins of denim, the book moves through the heart of Americana with five-pocket jeans, chore coats, and the legendary white tee. The narrative then spans across continents and industries, following the cowboy jackets, plaid flannels, and ranch-inspired clothing that left an indelible mark on fashion. Military pieces like the trench coat, M-65 field jacket, and the peacoat unfold their storied pasts, revealing how they seamlessly entered civilian wardrobes. The exploration further deepens with the sartorial heritage of the Navy and the timeless allure of the Breton and the duffle coat, as well as the adventurous appeal of safari jackets and waxed cotton motorcycle jackets. Menswear Mavericks also showcases how sportswear, with the likes of the polo shirt and Henley, evolved from athletic utility to casual essentials, breaking down barriers between leisure and fashion. This thematic journey is completed with a look at contemporary classics like the varsity sweatshirt, versatile baseball caps, and the enduring allure of the Perfecto jacket, which made its way from the backs of motorcyclists to movie stars and rock icons. Each chapter delves into the historical context, transformative cultural moments, and the pioneering brands that continue to shape the story of men’s fashion. With every page, readers are invited to embrace the legacy, innovation, and spirit of individuality that define these iconic garments. This book is more than a guide; it is an ode to those who have made style their statement, carrying the legacy of the maverick spirit into the modern age. Whether you’re a seasoned fashion aficionado or someone looking to build a versatile wardrobe, Menswear Mavericks offers insights and inspiration for all who appreciate the art of timeless style.

Release Date: 2016-07-14
In this M/M homage to the classic novel, Valley of the Dolls, Lambda-winning author Ryan Fields introduces us to six gay men searching for love and fame in the celebrity-fueled worlds of Broadway and Hollywood. The wide-eyed lawyer Rush Goodwin abandons his quaint New England life for the bright lights of New York City, where he meets singers/actors Cody and Anderson, and their partners, who are all just as young and innocent as he is. When Rush meets his new boss, handsome lawyer Lance Sharp, it's love at first sight and the beginning of a turbulent affair. As fame and fortune knock on each of their doors, Rush and his friends each learn, in their own different ways, that nothing ever goes according to plan. They each find themselves seeking the comforts of drugs (nicknamed ‘dudes’ to those in the know) to deal with the stress of success, which leads to its own spiral down the proverbial rabbit hole of broken hearts and dreams. But sometimes, we learn from our mistakes, and Rush and Lance find themselves when they let go and follow their hearts.
