Same-sex marriage is at the epicenter of the debate between Right and Left in America, and no community is more at the crossroads of this volatile political and social issue than New Paltz, NY. On Feb. 27, 2004, when Mayor Jason West solemnized the marriage of 24 gay and lesbian couples, New Paltz made news. From nearby New York City to Topeka, and from Paris to Tokyo, New Paltz became the small town byline for the big story. Quinn shares an intimate portrait of her town, its people and the diverse range of opinions and emotions surrounding the weddings. Quinn provides the reader with a glimpse into the heart of the same-sex marriage issue and why it polarized the nation.
