Gymnasiasts. Stories about Boys of the 19th Century

What are boys of the 19th century made of? Perhaps from playing with feathers and Latin grammar, from chalk, ink, and postage stamps? And also from a volume of Mayne Reid, mother's treats, and geographical maps. From cigarettes, laughter, and... tears. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of pre-revolutionary gymnasiums and boarding schools, when education was a privilege not available to everyone. An exciting journey awaits you – from school days to magical worlds and behind-the-scenes of the circus. The collection includes stories about youth, the spirit of camaraderie, and the exploration of the adult world, full of challenges and discoveries. The book features works by Russian writers – Nikolai Garin-Mikhailovsky, Nikolai Poznyakov, Antoniy Pogorelsky, Arkadiy Averchenko, and Dmitry Grigorovich.
