Acclaimed Qu???bec feminist Martine Delvaux turns her sharp eye and even sharper pen on the history of gentlemen's clubs and male fraternity in this wide-reaching study of patriarchy. Delvaux lays bare the brazen misogyny of boys' clubs across many fields, including politics, entertainment, technology, law enforcement, architecture, and the military.
