Excerpt from William Gay, or Play for Boys, Vol. 1 of 4 Watt Remsen, one of the young men who lived on William Gay's father's farm, and had charge of all the nice and difficult work there, was possessed of quite a scientific taste, - that is, he liked to look into the principles of things, and to understand the why and the wherefore of the different processes that he performed in his work, and of the various phenomena that he witnessed. He spent his evenings chiefly in reading scientific books. William used to look into his books sometimes, but he could not understand them, they were so full of hard words; and instead of pictures there were curious shaped figures formed of circles and straight lines, with letters printed at the ends of the lines and at the corners.

Excerpt from John Gay; Or, Work for Boys, Vol. 3 of 4 IN the back yard belonging to the house where John and Benny lived, there was a pump not far from the kitchen-door, with a wooden platform leading out to it from the door. Before the pump there was a spout, of the kind which the carpenters call a shoe, made to catch the waste water, and convey it into an Opening in the ground, where there was a grating through which it flowed into a dark recess in the earth, that led away, Benny could never imagine where.

Book Description
"You know, when you live in a time of progress, it seems that progress is the only possible way. The idea that everything we'd gained, all of those hard-won rights, could be taken away from us, and that open minds could be closed again? But then the Outrage happened." Welcome to England, where the Protectorate enforces the Public Good. Here, there are rules for everything - what to eat, what to wear, what to do, what to say, what to read, what to think, who to obey, who to hate, who to love. Your safety is assured, so long as you follow the rules. Gabriel is a natural born rule-breaker. And his biggest crime of all? Being gay. Gabriel knows his sexuality must be kept secret from all but his closest friends, not only to protect himself, but to protect his boyfriend. Because Eric isn't just the boy who has stolen Gabriel's heart. He's the son of the chief inspector at Degenerate Investigations - the man who poses the single biggest threat to Gabriel's life. And the Protectorate are experts at exposing secrets.
