De Milly, Walter. (1999) In my father’s arms: A true story of incest. Univ. of Wisconsin Press, Madison, WI.
Preview in Google Books
NOTE: From the publisher: “The TV-perfectfamily of Walter de Milly III
was like many others in the American South of the 1950s — seemingly
close-knit, solidly respectable, and active in the community.Tragically,
Walter’s deeply troubled father would launch his family on a perilous
journey into darkness. To the outside world, this man is a prominent
businessman, a dignified Presbyterian, and a faithful husband; to
Walter, he is an overwhelming, handsome monster. Whenever the two are
together, young Walter becomes a sexual plaything for his father; father
and son outings are turned into soul-obliterating nightmares. Walter
eventually becomes a successful businessman only to be stricken by
another catastrophe: his father, at the age of seventy, is caught
molesting a young boy. Walter is asked to confront his father. He
convenes the family, and in a private conference with a psychiatrist,
his father agrees to be surgically castrated. De Milly’s portraits of
his relationships with his father and mother, and the confrontation
that,leads to his father’s bizarre and irreversible voluntary “cure”,
are certain to be remembered long after the reader has set aside this
powerful contribution to the literature of incest survival.”
Echols, Mike. (1996) Brother Tony’s boys: The largest case of child prostitution in U.S. history: The true story. Prometheus Books, Amherst, NY.
NOTE: From the publisher: For over 25 years, charismatic Pentecostal
evangelist Brother Tony Leyva used Christianity, the Bible, and his
status as an “annointed prophet of God” to gain access to, seduce, and
sexually assault the young sons of his enthralled followers in 23
states. How could such heinous acts continue undetected for over two
decades? “Brother Tony’s Boys” peels back the multiple layers of this
twisted evangelist’s double life to answer this and other bone-chilling
questions. Read the riveting true story of how Leyva brought his
old-fashioned hellfire and brimstone revival to cities and towns from
Florida to New York and from Illinois to Louisiana and, under the cloak
of God, systematically manipulated and sexually assaulted adolescent
boys and procured victims for other “men of God”. Using eyewitness
accounts of victims, Mike Echols, author of the bestseller and 5-time
Emmy nominated mini-series “I Know My First Name Is Steven”, strips bare
the world of Pentecostals in the United States today to reveal how, in
this unique yet growing Christian sect, impassioned faith and devotion
to the “annointed ones” blinded parents to the evil in their midst.

Gartner, R. B. (1999) Betrayed as boys: Psychodynamic treatment of sexually abused men. Guilford Press, NY. NY.
NOTE: From the publisher: More than one in six boys in the United
States in sexually victimized by the age of 16. Yet in the growing
professional literature on child sexual abuse, few books focus
specifically on the experience of victimized boys and men. This
much-needed volume examines how sexual betrayal affects boys and the
ways they carry this hurt into adulthood. Blending psychoanalytic
understanding with insights from trauma-orientated theory and practice,
Richard B. Gartner presents effective strategies for meeting the unique
therapeutic needs of men with sexual abuse histories. Filled with
evocative clinical material, the book draws readers into the direct
experience of these clients, the therapists who work with them, and the
constantly shifting relational world they inhabit.
