Beautiful and stunning book that is perfect for fans of drag or those wanting to get into it!
If there was ever a need for there to be a "Bible" for Drag, I would recommend this as a contender.
Absolutely loved it and the photography is amazing.

Absolute fan of drag and this book. Beautiful beautiful drag kings and queens throughout the world are shown here by country and region. Drag is so fun and expressive. Would recommend this as an accessible option for those wondering what drag even is.

As someone whose only exposure to drag is the first dozen seasons of Drag Race (I unfortunately live in a pretty Conservative area) this was entertaining, informative, and eye-opening. The rich text was supplemented with beautiful photographs and I devoured it in an afternoon.

Oh my gosh, the picturesss! This book is everything, I cannot wait to get a copy for my shelf. Drag is such a beautiful art form but I love that all the of the different histories, good and difficult, are included! Really enjoyed this one

A detailed book on everything drag. The ebook does not do it full justice.
I liked the geographically-themed structure and found this book entertaining and informative.

"Planet Drag" is truly for the hardcore drag fans and people who are interested in expanding their knowledge of drag history. I loved picking it up and flicking through a few essays at a time!

It breaks down drag history by culture, with each section taking a deep dive into a country and its history of drag. Although I'm a big fan of drag, I've never taken the time to learn about how cultures outside of my own differ with their history and how it impacts local drag today, and I found this topic very interesting. Each section is written by someone from that culture, giving a first-hand perspective of how these events have impacted modern drag.

The photography is also absolutely beautiful, some of the images blew me away!

It's not one I was engrossed enough to read and not want to put down, but it is great if you enjoy dipping in to a section at a time and reading an essay or two as you go. I wouldn't recommend it if you don't have any interest in drag history as there is not much focus on modern-day drag. However, if you're a fan of drag and want to dip your toes into its history and how drag has become what it is today, this is a great place to start!

Lavishly photographed and rich in luscious detail, this History of Drag Culture is illuminating and revealing. Useful for both aficionados and those who are less cognizant of the vast extent of Drag Culture, this volume will provide an eye-opening and affirmative education as well as being an attractive addition to a stylish bookshelf or coffee table.

I've followed Courtney Conquers—and Drag Coven—on social media for quite a while and have long enjoyed the work she's done as a drag photographer and archivist. When she first shared that she was working on this book, I was really excited about the premise and the opportunity to learn a bit more about the history and impact of drag on a global scale, especially if it was going to be handed to me in an easily accessible, succinct format. While this is obviously not an all-inclusive history (and I'd challenge you to show me any piece of media that possibly could be), it offers some really fascinating information about drag across several countries and continents. Despite being an avid fan of drag, both in and out of the context of Drag Race, there's still so much I don't know about the art form, especially when it comes to its history outside of the United States.

As someone who isn't generally much of a nonfiction reader, this was interesting and well-written enough to hold my attention, even when the information being presented was something with which I was already familiar. If you're a drag enthusiast, or even a casual fan who's looking to learn a bit more about drag or become more involved in the drag community, Planet Drag is a great starting point for expanding your knowledge and appreciation.
