Title: Revolutionary Workers' League
Seller: Bernett Rare Books Inc (United States)
Description: 57 pp. mimeographed booklet, not illustrated. Quarto (11 x 8 1/2 inches). Original stapled self-wrappers. Some light soiling and age-toning along edges, a few small tears to back cover which is loose and around one of the staples at front, old staples removed and replaced, internally clean, overall very good. Chicago: Revolutionary Workers League U.S.A., 1939. The Revolutionary Workers League, or RWL, was a radical leftist group founded in the United States in 1935, which was active through 1946. It was led by trade unionist Hugo Oehler and published a newspaper called The Fighting Worker. Its origins were within the Workers Party of the United States, and became an independent faction when Oehler and others opposed merging with the Socialist Party of America. This program is one of numerous booklets and pamphlets published by the RWL during their short life. It articulates the ideology of the RWL, including its Marxist and anti-Stalinist as well as anti-imperialist and anti-capitalist viewpoints. The RWL also supported the Spanish Republic as well as the Black working class in America. And although they were critical of Stalinism, the RWL stated that the working class should support the USSR in the event of war. The opening statement calls this booklet a "Draft Program" which is "submitted by the Political Committe of the Revolutionary Workers League U.S. It is the result of more than 2 years work. The 2nd Convention of the organization in Chicago December 1937 accepted the outline for this document. Since then a special committee of the Central Committee has worked on the document. In its present form it is still subject to the final approval of the Central Committee and membership...The Program is an International Program which gives special consideration to the problems of the working class under American Imperialism. It is not in its present form a specific U.S. program, although American Imperialism is dealt with at some length not only because the R.W.L. is located in the United States, but because of the importance of the U.S. in world politics." The various chapter headings are as follows: "World Capitalism - Its Growth and Decay"; "Wars and Revolutions"; "Capitalist Agents in the Ranks of the Working Class"; "The Communist Fourth International"; "The Social Revolution"; "Strategy and Tactics of the Class Struggle"; "The Revolution in the United States"; and "The Transformation of Society". This booklet was published in January 1939, just nine months before the outbreak of World War II. Very scarce; as of February 2026, OCLC locates four holdings in North America of a similar but not identical item, titled "Draft Program of the Revolutionary Workers League of the United States", with similar pagination (60 pp.), and only one holding of this particular title with the same pagination.

Title: Let Me Die A Woman: The Why And How of Sex-Change Operations" 1978 First Edition Pulp on the Male-to-Female Transgender Experience
Author: M.J. Lukas; Transgender
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1978. [Transgender] Lukas, M.J. Let Me Die A Woman, the 1978 companion volume to Doris Wishman's semidocumentary exploitation film of the same name. This book put to print the film's exploration of male-to-female transgender experience, combining medical explanation, surgical discussion, and autobiographical case histories. The volume centers the work of Dr. Leo Wollman, identified in the foreword as physician, surgeon, psychologist, minister, medical writer, and scientific adviser to the film, and presents gender transition through the clinical language then prevalent in American sexology. Chapters including "Crossed Wires: The Puzzle of Gender Identity," "Between Worlds: The Tortured Transsexual," "The Problem of Self-Hatred: 'That Thing Between My Legs,'" and "Under the Knife: The Surgeon Rebuilds" explain the prevailing assumptions, therapeutic models, and social attitudes surrounding transgender identity during the late 1970s. First-person "Life Story" narratives trace subjects from childhood gender dysphoria through hormone treatment and surgery, documenting how transition was presented to a popular audience during a period when public understanding remained largely mediated through medical authorities, sensational journalism, and exploitation cinema. Lukas, M.J. Let Me Die a Woman: The Why and How of Sex-Change Operations. New York: Rearguard Productions, 1978. The text opens with a foreword crediting Wollman as a pioneer in the study and treatment of transsexual patients and states that much of the book's scientific content derived from consultations with him. The table of contents lists ten chapters interspersed with five autobiographical case studies, including "My Husband Is My Wife!," "Help Me! Help Me!," "In Limbo," "Adam Or Eve!," and "And So They Lived Happily Ever After." A preliminary leaf reproduces a portrait captioned, "Leslie, born a male and now feminine in every way," while the rear cover identifies Leslie as one of the film's featured subjects and summarizes her transition through hormone therapy and surgery. The contents page further notes photographic illustrations from the motion picture Let Me Die a Woman and anatomical drawings by William Jaber. This book was published in the aftermath of the sexual revolution and post-Stonewall LGBTQ activism, when publishers, sex educators, physicians, and exploitation filmmakers all contributed to public understanding of gender transition. Released the same year as Wishman's film, it contains both genuine, compassionate explorations of gender and lurid, exploitative rhetoric, preserving language and frameworks of the 70s that would soon be challenged by changing medical standards and transgender advocacy. A contemporaneous account of transgender experience in the 1970s presented to a general readership. Moderate rubbing and edge wear to wrappers; light toning to text block; binding sound. Overall very good condition.
