What if trans people have ALWAYS been here? Such is the case with Mademoiselle Chevalier d'Eon, a French noble and SPY who personally negotiated the end of the Seven Years War, snuck into Russia by passing herself off as a woman, and ended up a political enemy of the state for revealing French secrets to England... only to make her gender EVERYONE'S business by blackmailing the King of France until he officially recognized her as a woman! This is a wild & true story that you don't want to miss.

Trans people have literally always existed. Prior to the *existence* of the United States of America, Mademoiselle Chevalier Charlotte d'Eon, a French noble and SPY made her gender everyone's problem by living the first half of her life as a man (one who personally negotiated the end of the Seven Years War and ended up a political enemy of the state for revealing French secrets to England), and the second half of her life as a woman--having her gender officially recognized by multiple governments. Her story contains twists, turns, scandal, blackmail, alcohol, treason, libel, spycraft, and so, so much more that you have to hear to believe.
