Vicious and Immoral: Homosexuality, the American Revolution, and the Trials of Robert Newburgh

Vicious and Immoral uses the wartime trials of Continental Army officer Robert Newburgh to investigate sexuality, military law, and citizenship during the American Revolution. John Gilbert McCurdy reconstructs accusations of same-sex conduct and the institutions that judged them, showing how revolutionary Americans defined acceptable manhood and used ideas about morality to police the boundaries of the new nation.
