Book excerpt: Young man appointed as first male Master at The Alternative Academy, soon finds things are not quite what they seem: given a group of girls to teach, soon find out their sport is taking boys' clothes, wearing them themselves-making boys wear their's! He confesses he had exciting nightmares about it happening to him, when their age. In short order he is tricked and ambushed and wearing schoolgirl uniform, leashed by string around 'her' balls up and out of the blouse, so her ex-schoolgirl 'boyfriend' can keep her under control. Then he is paraded round the streets with another similar 'girl' and their two 'boyfriends' before the two 'girls' are put to bed in a caravan, whilst the 'boys' take their customary places; the first stage in a planned full takeover of their lives, leads to our young man being installed in the maids quarters, to learn that trade and life that life for the rest of her days-whilst his life and property is taken by the girl who ensnared him.

Book excerpt: Few historians have written about walking, despite its obvious centrality to the human condition. Focusing on the period 1800-1914, this book examines the practices and meanings of walking in the context of transformative modernity. It boldly suggests that once historians place walking at the heart of their analyses, exciting new perspectives on themes central to the ‘long nineteenth century’ emerge. Walking Histories, 1800-1914 adopts a global perspective, including contributions from specialists in the history and culture of Great Britain, North America, Australia, Russia, East-Central Europe, and South Asia. Critically engaging with recent research, the contributions within offer fresh insights for academic experts, while remaining accessible to student readers. This book will be essential reading for those interested in movement, travel, leisure, urban history, and environmental history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boys in the Pits shows the rapid maturity of the boys and their role in resisting exploitation. In what will certainly be a controversial interpretation of child labour, Robert McIntosh recasts wage-earning children as more than victims, showing that they were individuals who responded intelligently and resourcefully to their circumstances. Boys in the Pits is particularly timely as, despite the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, accepted by the General assembly in 1989, child labour still occurs throughout the world and continues to generate controversy. McIntosh provides an important new perspective from which to consider these debates, reorienting our approach to child labour, explaining rather than condemning the practice. Within the broader social context of the period, where the place of children was being redefined as - and limited to - the home, school, and playground, he examines the role of changing technologies, alternative sources of unskilled labour, new divisions of labour, changes in the family economy, and legislation to explore the changing extent of child labour in the mines.

Book excerpt: On an exciting but fateful day a letter appeared in Clara and Richard McCann's mailbox, no stamp no return address. Upon opening this envelope Clara discovered a nicely typed letter, and a check for a large amount of money, also in the envelope was a map to a destination. After Clara and Richard retired from their busy jobs in the medical fi eld they found retirement to be boring so without a lot if discussion they went on this adventure. One of the destinations took them to St Louis where they happen to live next door to a woman with four little boys. After discovering this young woman's circumstances Clara jumped into her 'I can fi x this mode' and together they gave this struggling woman the love and attention she had longed for her entire life. Th en after one-year in St Louis they got another letter just like the fi rst one to go to a diff erent city and state. Th is time they go to Indiana and fi nd themselves helping a beautiful Russian woman solve a murder mystery. Clara, Richard and handsome detective Brooks set a trap for the despicable men who were targeting elderly women; why were these men raping and murdering these women? Richard and Clara ask this question frequently, who was sending them these letters? Richard seemed to think it had to be an angel, while Clara was not convinced she felt it had to be someone with a lot of money; a millionaire with the know how to make their pension checks come to their new address. The final question has always been why were they chosen to do this life changing work?
