Ooh, wonderful, thank you for posting this! I've added a couple of books to my to-read list.
I mentioned the other day that Graham Robb's "Strangers" has some coverage of queer women, albeit a minority, but I thought I'd just mention it again.
For those who are interested in fiction, Sarah Waters has a number of novels about Victorian lesbians -- "Tipping the Velvet" is the first and best known. (I'm probably stating the obvious, but hey, just in case anyone didn't know.)
I'm trying to think if there are any (potentially) lesbian characters in the Holmes canon. Something's itching at the back of my brain and I can't recall what it is... probably a client living in the country, I think. Anyone?
