The photographs are as surprisingly varied as the stories. The cover shot is of an Asian American soldier standing proudly at attention. Inside theres a family portrait of gay men with their young daughter. One shows a group of older men, another shows a young man outdoors with his dog. Other photos are of couples, young men lounging casually, an interracial couple smiling into the camera. Throughout, the images and the stories remind readers that theres nothing stereotypical about these individuals.
