Book Description
Inspiring portraits of gay men and their families from all across America.
An evolution has quietly been occurring in the world of parenting. Recent surveys reveal that millions of children have found loving homes either by being born to, or adopted by, gay men. This book is a celebration of these remarkable new families.
Gay Dads includes twenty-five personal accounts from men describing their unique journeys to fatherhood and the struggles and successes they have experienced as they raise their children. This is the first book to provide such an expansive exploration of this extraordinary new family unit. With beautiful black-and-white photographs of each of the families, Gay Dads is a moving tribute to familial love.

Excellent read for anyone that would like to share in the expierence of fatherhood with gay men.
Refreshing and insighful.
A must read for gay men that are thinking of having kids.
A Book For All Future Gay Dads.......2005-04-27
I got this book and started reading the book and I could not put it down. When I got half way through the book I noticed that I was half way done with the book and that I did not want it to end. So now I am only reading 1 story per week so I can make the book last. I hope the author will come out ( no pon Intended) with a sequal.
Even if your not a gay male you will find all the stories heart warming. After reading this I hope you will want to support Same-Sex Marriages.
Gay Dads.......2004-07-19
You can't help but be deeply touched by the stories David Strah so beautifully tells in Gay Dads. This book not only highlights the struggles of creating a family and how different family structures/make up can and do work but more importantly, it demonstrates how love can overcome adversities. Read it and be enlightened.
Beautiful........2004-06-15
I NEVER buy a book when I can just check it out or read it in the store, but I finally just had to get this one after several of the stories caused me to well up right there in the store. David Strah's masterpiece has been brilliantly crafted, with each story showing how strong love can be. I only wish it came it hardback.
Excellent book with dynamic photos!.......2003-07-30
Like the other reviewers of this book, I also feel it was a page turner and beautifully written. I bought the book based on the reviews I read from this site and am happy to say it was worth every penny! David Straw has a gift for story telling. He shares the tales of 24 families and tells us how they each became a family. The methods range from international adoptions to co-parenting with a lesbian couple. The photographs are brilliant. I had to hold back from choking on tears several times because the pictures were so touching. Straw covers his own family's story in the last chapter. His kids are insanely cute! I guarantee this book is a must-read, something for everyone, gay, straight, married, or single, whatever, you will love it!
